I think it was actually 30 when you get sent to 'carousel'!

We could also add in:

Bankers - with the secondary benefit that the rest of us would all become better off
Journalists - with the secondary benefit that there would be more paper available to make into loo rolls

Who would you add to the list, and what would the secondary benefits be?

Packing designers and foam "peanuts"- secondary benefit being able to use/enjoy that which we have bought along lots of extra free time not wrestling with something that is made for the sellers profit and not the buyers benefit

Oh feck it, all designers. I can't remember the last time I saw something that was designed fit for purpose. We can also add accountants as they no doubt set the designers design parameters aimed at profit only and feck the customer.

I was hoping for another option: cull both the politicians and the woke students. That would yield the best results.

No, I do not ski - too much damage to my knees over the years to allow me to ever attempt skiing. My wife is a keen skier, and she has skied Mount Hutt.

Don't speak to me about trains, one trip to the south west on a Pendolino 15 years ago was the final nail in the "me using public transport" coffin and wishing back to the age of steam.

Even the fecking suspension was shite, so "floaty" it made me sea sick.

Pendolino designers will be near the top of my cull list.

Virgin was never the same after Tubular Bells.
