Equipotential bonding in bathroom
 
What size conductor should be used to bond everything that's metal to
everything else that's metal in the bathroom (but not run back to the CU)?

Cheers,

Mogweed.

Correct.

or 6mm2 bare.

Wrong. Bare protective conductors, whether circuit protective
conductors or equipotential bonding conductors, are not permitted for
sizes of less than 10 mm^2. [See regulation 543-03-02]
