    Fade haircuts, auto play video ads on news websites. Virtue signalling that is pointless, Eg fine gael saying
    Diesel cars will be banned in 10 years, most people can't afford electric cars, there's only a small no of charging
    points. You can go and fill up at a petrol station in 3minutes. We have no infrastructure if say 50k people
    had to charge their car every day.
    The phrase person x is a member of the travelling community, Eg just say Joe blogs is a travellor
    Put 50 euro tax on any jeans with a hole in them
    No one is allowed to use random words as baby names
    or names with no, s in them.
    If Any company gets help from the government in the crisis they have to publish detailed info on how much tax they pay for the next 5years Eg percentage of tax paid on profit, revenue

    Infrastructure would be developed in parallel with increased adoption. Much like how they built more train tracks the more people started using trains, for example.

    I'd like to ban the practice of letting front line health workers into supermarkets ahead of everyone else.

    Elderly customers still get to skip though.

    Twitter and the Journal.ie.

    The malcontents, oddballs, and losers who contribute to comments on sites like that don’t deserve a platform to spew their bile and hate.

    I'm banned from the Journal, which worries me

    Trains not a great example, they lifted the tracks up here and never replaced with anything near it. We probably had the most scenic train track from Letterkenny to Burtonport, you could get on a train in West Donegal and with a few station jumps go nearly anywhere on the island

    I'd like to ban that practice too , especially after I saw the wife of a volunteer fireman wearing his Fire Brigade fleece in order to skip the queue at a supermarket.

    Frozen ice. If it is not fresh, don't automatically assume I want it in my drink.

    Frozen ice? Is that different to regular ice?

    Although I dislike when restaurants or pubs put a slice of lemon or lime in a glass of water or coke. I always remove it. Not that it has happened recently. :)

    Making or taking calls in public on a phone's loud speaker. Same for listening to films, tv shows and music in public without headphones/earphones.

    Not specifically.
    Though a dangerous driving charge or driving without due care and attention can be levelled. To the best of my knowledge.

    Unnecessary apostrophes for plurals or words simply ending with the letter “s”.

    The point the person is making may be excellent but the sight of one or more of these, usually just lobbed onto plurals, makes me check right out.

    Pubs and restaurants have a secret stash of fresh ice,the general public are not aware of this. It is why they never think to complain.
