With a PAT sticker on it?

Probably, the Sally Army are reasonably good about that.

Red Cross got reported for 1950s Class I electric sewing machine with a plug with unsleeved pins, missing cord grip screws, exposed inner insulation of the individual wires outside the plug body, and the female line connector for the mains supply and foot pedal not being touch safe to current standards.

Reported because I'd already told them about previous dodgy electricals they had out, and they still put out more. They don't have enough electricals to "make it worth testing".
