Maybe a campaign of civil disobedience - let's all go do some electrical
work. The more bolshie among us could try a bit of gas fitting too ;-)

Go for it - gas fitting is so easy - especially with modern plastic
pipes and push fittings. A tiny bit of skill is required when it comes
to fitting in-line compression fitting service valves - just throw away
the olives and use a good quality glue such as boss-white instead.

Boss-white? Overkill. Used chewing gum and a few turns of gaffer tape
shurely? ;D

Or hose pipe - as my brother discovered when he moved into his new [1]
house a couple of years ago
