Re：Don't start another Date Posted：2026-07-02 08:30:00Copy HTML Our Labour government discourages air conditioning as it's bad for the climate. In fact in some places they're actually taking AC units out! You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Re：Don't start another Date Posted：2026-07-03 09:21:54Copy HTML Not banned but discouraged. One local authority has ordered some home owners to take down their AC units as they contravene emissions rules. Luckily it's not (yet) an order copied elsewhere.
