This is insane. Legally (like anyone pays any attention to these laws) you
cannot do simple things like fitting an electrical socket to your own home,

dangerous to other people!

It's not about safety. The electrician's union owns more government lawmakers
than the mechanic's union.


Which electrician and which mechanic are you referring to?


Did you read his post at all? He referred to a union, not an individual.
