What I am saying is that in todays litigious society there is an undeniable tendency to make mountains out of molehills in the expectation of higher and, in my personal view, ridiculous payouts.

"I was taking a flight and the toilets overflowed. There was sh1t everywhere and the smell was awful. I was so traumatised that I couldn't go down the post office to get my benefit-defrauding giro for 3 weeks and therefore couldn't afford my weekly fix."

"I called the National Accident Tear-The-Ar5e-Out-Of-It-Line and they put me in touch with a professional solicitor who obviously couldn't cut it in private practice so ended up doing litigation, mass torts, and class actions for people like me who can smell(!) an opportunity for cash whenever it presents itself. He sued the ar5e out of the airline I flew with and got me £262,381, which is frankly more money than I should be trusted with alone."

"What's more, the airline has now instigated new safety procedures in all their toilets."
Sorry, couldn't resist. I agree the situation was unacceptable, but if any lawsuits come from this they should be thrown out immediately...
