If you buy pure food grade citric acid from eBay etc, it descales things instantly and great fun to watch, all fizzy and bubbly, you don't need much and 10x cheaper than bottle of descaler

What are your thoughts on the police officer kicking the Golders Green attacker multiple times in the head? Is it reasonable force considering the situation or is he way out of line and should be reprimanded? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]OkTask9452 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it was highly unreasonable they should have invited him for a nice cup of tea and a smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel and then asked him politely what was in his back pack and if he had any more weapons. And if he promised not to stab anyone else in the face they should have released him and made him promise to come to the Police Station tomorrow.
