10. Drinkers have been banned from calling barmaids "love". An outraged Daily Star says new discrimination laws mean landlords that allow punters to chat up staff could be hauled before a tribunal and face unlimited fines.

Welcome to the Politically Crippled world of Great Britain in the 21st century. Political Correctness has gone mad here. Thanks Labour.

I've been called love by English people I know and thought it was nice. I knew they weren't "in love" with me but that they liked me. I assumed this was common in England.

Love is such a terrible, terrible word! It must be outlawed before it gets out of hand!
