Power socket keeps going to on

Hi
Not sure how to explain this, but my consumer unit isn't tripping. It's just a particular socket, when plugged in for a while, the on/off switch keeps going to on (I.e you try to push it to off, it jumps back to on). We've even replaced this particular socket, any ideas?
Looks like this is the end of the circuit socket

Apparently a known problem, just read all the 1 star reviews:
