Formatted contents note Covers the following laws amongst many others:<br/>The Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (Ripa) or "snooper's charter", allows a wide range of government bodies and quangos to watch over people, check on what they are doing and monitor their communications. <br/>The Safeguarding Vulnerable People Act...which will require 11 million people working with children or the elderly to obtain a certificate allowing them to continue to do so yet will be easily evaded by those few individuals who are a danger to children.<br/>The Hunting Act. More foxes have died every year since the Act came into force. <br/>The Children Act. All 25,000 state and private nursery schools, child minders and playgroups are required to follow a new statutory framework dubbed the "nappy curriculum". <br/>Smoking Ban - It has interfered both with personal freedom and with commercial enterprise. <br/>Housing Act - which brought us Hips in the midst of a property price slump.<br/>European Arrest Warrant - which allows British citizens to be extradited to another jurisdiction to stand trial for an offence that is not a crime in the UK.<br/>Dangerous Dogs Act, which became synonymous with hasty and ill-thought-out legislation. <br/>Firearms Act which wiped out the sport and livelihoods of thousands of law abiding people.<br/>War Crimes Act, pushed through using the Parliament Act but which has resulted in not a single conviction.<br/>Religious Hatred Act which made a bad thought a crime.<br/>Numerous Health and safety laws of every description.<br/>The Licensing Act which made it an offence to play a piano in a pub without authorisation.
