    So while it looks you could use the EU directive, the SoGA encompasses everything the EU directive gives plus more consumer protection. Hence EU directive is not applicable.

    Yes, we know that. The discussion is about directives generally.

    I agree, and the quotes others are giving in disagreement do not state that Directives are not law, but rather than they are EU law rather than domestic law. Nonetheless, they are still "law".

    Absolutely. And EU law is incorporated into domestic law pursuant to the ECA 1972.

    You're not doing very well at keeping it a secret. "THEY" might find out :o
    Squirrel!
    If I tell you who I work for, I'm not allowed to help you. If I don't say, then I can help you with questions and fixing products. Regardless, there's still no secret EU law.
