The restaurant's transformation was accomplished in record time, and now, when darkness falls, the terrace overlooking the secluded beach is illuminated by candles and chic tabletop “firepits”. Impressive renovations of the rooms and suites are currently under way, but sprucing up the "guest experience” is only a part of what is planned for the property; the vision is to ensure the hotel takes sustainability seriously. Now as much of the kitchen's produce as possible is locally sourced, and to this end an organic Nobu garden was planted, a first for the Nobu chain. Four Seasons says it provides more than 65 per cent of the restaurant's ingredients. “The goal for Four Seasons Resorts Lana'i,” they say “is to have 80-90 per cent of Nobu's produce home grown, and then, as agriculture expands on the island, the farms can supply the resort's other outlets.”Already done:Lanai CityReopening the public pool, refurbishing basketball courts, repainting employee housing and adding picnic tables amid the towering Cook Island pines of Dole Park.

Okay, I’m not going to include any of the archaic—quite probably mythical—stuff about shooting Welshmen after midnight or whatever. Only stuff that is actually relevant to today, rather than things that might make it into an awful clickbaity listicle of “15 of Britain’s WACKIEST laws, you won’t believe item 6”.Weapons: Section 1 of the Prevention of Crime Act 1953 makes it an offence to carry in public “any article made or adapted for use to causing injury to the person, or intended by the person having it with him for such use”. In practice, this means you aren’t allowed to carry around knives, swords, daggers, guns (we’ll get on to them in a sec), or cool ninja shit like throwing stars or nunchucks.Except… you sort of are, if you have a legitimate use for that item. Someone going to a martial arts practice can bring weapons used in that martial art along with them. If the police were to stop you on the way home from a fencing tournament, your fencing swords are unlikely to get you arrested if you can show the relevant protective clothing and the like.I’ve heard of a young man getting arrested for carrying a rather large spanner (that’s ‘wrench’ in the US) capable of doing some quite considerable damage to some other poor fellow’s skull. The arresting constable was less than impressed by his claim to need it to repair his car—at 11:30pm while walking towards an area where a planned gang fight was to occur—as the man was unable to tell the officer where his car was located nor could he produce a driver’s license. It was later confirmed that he did not own a car or have a license, nor could he name any friend or associate whose car needed repair.A common way around this ban is to carry something that has a valid non-weapon use. Power tools are a good example for this: you can wander the streets with a power drill—if stopped, one can say “I’m a builder, just got off a job”, then be on one’s merry way to re-enacting The Driller Killer.Guns: Handguns, nope. Shotguns and rifles: yes, with a license and a legitimate reason (hunting, target shooting, agricultural use). Even with a license, you need a locked cabinet to store your gun in and there are comprehensive background checks before you are allowed to get a gun. The police tend to be pretty quick about revoking gun licenses—and confiscating that person’s guns—if a person really ought not to have a gun.Most of our police officers don’t have guns either—only those who are in specifically trained firearms squads, or who are on protective duties (outside Parliament, or at airports etc). Given the rather trigger happy attitudes of police have led to the deaths of innocent people—like the Brazilian electrician Jean Charles de Menezes, who the police confused for a terrorist before putting seven hollow-point bullets through his brain (afterwards, they then grossly misled the press about his behaviour before the shooting)—I’m rather glad that police access to deadly weaponry is kept to a minimum.Smoking in public buildings: pubs, bars, nightclubs, restaurants, shops, office buildings, trains and buses, train stations and platforms, hospitals, police stations—no smoking in any of them. There’s a few rather strange exceptions like prisons, where it’s up to the prison governor. There are a whole lot of shelters dotted around outside where people go to smoke and plenty of pubs and nightclubs have outdoor smoking terraces.The ban seems to have worked: more and more people are giving up smoking and fewer teenagers are starting to smoke.Some places—notably the bigger mainline train stations like London Victoria—also ban vaping/e-cigarettes too.Smoking in a car with children: that’s banned too.Drinking in public: not everywhere, mind, but there are certain places where you’ll find signs saying ‘Alcohol Control Zone’, and where you can be arrested for drinking alcohol on the street. (Some particularly clueless visiting journalist once saw an ‘Alcohol Control Zone’ sign in the vicinity of the East London Mosque in Whitechapel and concluded that “sharia law has taken over!”)Also, alcohol is banned from the London Underground and other Transport for London services. But not on mainline train services, where you can get merrily shit-faced to take away the agonising experience of having to travel by train in Britain.Advertising for cigarettes: no advertising for cigarettes on TV since 1965, and all advertising for cigarettes has been banned since 2005.Advertising quack cancer cures: this is a lovely bit of weird old legislation. The Cancer Act 1939 makes it a criminal offence to advertise quack cancer cures. There have been some people who have gone to prison for this. Given these parasites extract money from vulnerable people for bullshit snake oil, I’m okay with this.Being drunk in a licensed premises (i.e. a pub, bar, nightclub): bar staff are legally required to not serve people who are obviously drunk. The usual phrase for this is “I think you may have had enough now, sir” which is English Understatement for “you are too drunk, please leave or I’ll call the Old Bill”.Lotteries, except the National Lottery: since 1993, there has been a state-run lottery called the National Lottery. You aren’t allowed to run a lottery without a license.This prohibition hasn’t stopped a man called Richard Desmond from trying to do so—he’s a billionaire media tycoon who has stated that he does not like being referred to as a “porn baron”, so it’d be awfully unfair if people were to refer to the former publisher of Asian Babes, Mega Boobs, Skinny & Wriggly (I don’t even) and the former proprietor of Television X as a “porn baron”. Anyway, Desmond’s lottery is called the Health Lottery and it skirts very close to the line by operating 31 separate “local lotteries”. Which is fine, apparently, his lawyers checked and stuff.The law does not forbid “games of skill”, so often times there will be phone-in quizzes and competitions that will ask a trivially easy question like “What day is it?” or “Have you been able to locate your own arse with your hands?”, and presuming you get this highly taxing question right you will be entered into the not-at-all lottery-like game of skill. This is the usual way people get around wanting to run a competition that is otherwise legally dubious.Running a stupidly huge casino: Britain has had a rather strange relationship with gambling. In 1968, the law was changed to allow the opening of commercial casinos. Compared to the giant palaces of Las Vegas, these were rather small affairs and up until fairly recently had to be run as “private clubs”, so punters would have to sign up as members before they could use the facilities. In 2005, there was an attempt to liberalise the law on casinos, and it is now the case that the “membership” rule is no longer enforced.At the same time, there was a plan to introduce super casinos, enormous Vegas-style destinations with over 5,000 square metres of floor space. That didn’t happen, mostly because of political pressure from tabloid newspapers.Drugs: the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 makes it illegal to possess, supply, or offer to supply any “controlled substance”. You also can’t allow your property to be used for producing or supplying. (I know, your dreams of owning an East End crack den are shattered. Seriously, though, it’s a strict liability offence and people have been convicted having not known their tenants were using the place for drugs.)Controlled substances are the usual suspects you’ve probably heard of, in order of legal severity:A: heroin, cocaine, crack, MDMA (ecstasy), methamphetamine, LSD, DMT, psilocybins (magic mushrooms)B: amphetamines, cannabis, codeine, ketamine, methoxetamine, methylphenidateC: GHB, diazepam, flunitzarepam and other tranquillisers, sleeping tablets, benzodiazepines, anabolic steroids.The category of drug is tied to the severity of the offences related to it. Back when Labour was in power, there was an attempt to move cannabis into class C. This caused frothing at the mouth by tabloid “law and order” types so it was quickly reversed. And, yes, it is the official position of the British government that ecstasy is as dangerous as heroin—hence the shared Class A classification—despite heroin causing over 1,200 deaths a year compared to around 50 for ecstasy. But ecstasy is scary because it’s taken by young people in clubs, so yeah, be afraid.Having faced years of criticism for the failure of Britain’s “war on drugs” approach, the government upped the ante by bringing in the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016, which makes it a criminal offence to possess, supply, offer (etc. etc.) any substance that “by stimulating or depressing the person’s central nervous system… affects the person’s mental functioning or emotional state”.What does that mean? Nobody has a goddamn clue. A fair few scientists and lawyers have pointed out that it’s quite difficult to be certain about what meets this definition as the pharmacological response to a substance can differ between people, or depending on what other substances a person has taken.Of course, a smart reader might see an immediate flaw in this definition: namely, a number of legal substances stimulate or depress a person’s central nervous system and thus affect their mental functioning or emotional state. Like caffeine or alcohol or tobacco. Hell, a nice perfume, or a particularly tasty chocolate bar, even water might satisfy that criteria. The government’s solution to this: they just made it so those things were whitelisted. They literally passed a law that said any substance that met a really quite arbitrary definition of “psychoactive” is forbidden, except food and drink, alcohol, tobacco, nicotine, caffeine and medicine. When you draw your laws so broadly, you have to include a specific opt-out to ensure it isn’t illegal to eat food, you’ve probably done something wrong.So, yeah, drugs are off-limits and we’re really, really quite expansive in our definition of drugs, such that our politicians have done it through a putative definition: pointing and going “those things, they’re bad, we don’t want them”.Our drug laws are driven far more by political posturing (“sending a strong message” etc.) and fear of tabloid backlash than by any rational accounting of what harms particular drugs do and how to practically reduce harm. Drug addicts are not helped by being chucked in prison.Extreme pornography: a fair few years ago, the government passed a law banning “extreme pornography”. Section 63 of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008 in particular.Hunting with dogs: if your thing is dressing up like this and chasing foxes through the countryside on horseback, well, it’s been banned since 2005. People still do it because neither them, nor the police, seem to give a fuck.Image by Jenniferronan, File:Tipperaryfoxhoundsfield.png - Wikimedia CommonsLoads of food that are allowed in the US: stuff made with artificial food dyes (think Lucky Charms), brominated vegetable oil (Mountain Dew!), potassium bromate flour, azodicarbonamide, bovine growth hormones and (holy shit) arsenic. There’s also a whole big debate about chlorinated chicken going on at the moment—we don’t import chlorinated chicken from the US, but some of our politicians seem just fine with the idea of importing it post-Brexit.Libel: sure, there’s libel laws in most countries, but we are the libel capital of the world. There’s a reason that the Tom Cruise character in South Park shouted “I’LL SUE YOU IN ENGLAND!”There’s a whole load of things you can bring libel cases over that you couldn’t elsewhere, because of both stronger free speech protections in countries like the USA (the First Amendment is a lot stronger in terms of free speech protection than Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights) and legislation that protects against malicious action (“anti-SLAPP” laws).There have been quite a few cases of the rich and powerful using libel laws to squelch journalists looking at legitimate stories of their wrongdoing, as well as the notorious case of British Chiropractic Association v Singh where chiropractors went after a science writer for pointing out that they endorse treatments that are rather evidentially sub-standard.The threat of libel litigation has also led to lots of books not being published in the UK. The memoir of Amanda Knox—the American woman who was convicted in Italy for the murder of her roommate and then had her conviction for murder overturned—wasn’t published here out of fear of libel. Nor was Lawrence Wright’s book on the Church of Scientology, Going Clear, or Karen Dawisha’s book on corruption in Russia, Putin’s Kleptocracy.Incitement to racial or religious hatred: you can’t stand up and tell all your idiotic Nazi friends to go and beat up ethnic minorities. Because that’s awful.Incandescent light bulbs: it’s all energy saving bulbs here now.Protesting near Parliament: you need prior authorisation from the Metropolitan Police for any protest in Parliament Square, Whitehall or the nearby area. This ban was brought in because of an anti-war protestor named Brian Haw, who had a permanent protest set up in Parliament Square opposite Parliament calling for Tony Blair to be arrested as a war criminal. The Government passed the Serious Organised Crime and Policing Act 2005, which required prospective protestors to get police approval.Problem was, the courts decided that since Haw’s protest started before the law was passed, he didn’t need to get an approval, thus rather negating the point of passing the law. Mark Thomas has a highly amusing radio piece on the silliness of SOCPA.Capital punishment: we got rid of it in 1965. Banning capital punishment is also a requirement for membership of the EU. (Which raises the prospect that once we’re out of the EU, they might bring it back. Which would be awful for a whole lot of reasons, not least of which being the long and storied history of Great British fit-ups.)Corporal punishment in schools: banned in state-run schools since 1986; banned in private schools since 1998 (England and Wales), 2000 (Scotland), 2003 (Northern Ireland). And there was a legal case against the ban brought by some private Christian school headmasters, arguing that preventing them from beating the shit out of children infringed on their sincerely held religious beliefs. (That failed, thankfully.)Judicial corporal punishment: banned since 1948, except as a punishment in prison for serious assaults until 1967. Except in the Isle of Man, where they didn’t abolish it until 2000. Why? Because the European Court of Human Rights told the Manx government in 1978 that “birching” a 15-year-old was “inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment” and incompatible with Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights. But the Isle of Man took 22 years to actually change the law, because they really liked beating up teenagers, I guess.Reporting restrictions in courtrooms: inside a British courtroom, no cameras are allowed (except the Supreme Court, who broadcast their own video feeds) and there are often reporting restrictions on what can be published about an ongoing court case. You can’t publish details of proceedings in Youth Court. You can’t give identifying details for victims of sexual offences (or female genital mutilation offences). If a pupil alleges a teacher to have committed a crime against them, the teacher cannot be named if charges are not filed (so as to prevent malicious accusation). Judges can also institute reporting restrictions on cases, for instance to protect witnesses, or to prevent malicious and defamatory claims made by a defendant that were included in mitigatory pleas.Some movies: in the US, there is the MPAA rating system. This is basically a voluntary arrangement made between the movie studios, the distributors and theatres. In the UK, this is done by the British Board of Film Classification—though they are a non-governmental organisation, their ratings have the force of law in terms of video sales and also in practice, in cinemas.If you own a cinema and want to show a film, technically you have to have a license to do so from the local authority: the metropolitan or county government. In practice, if the film has been rated by the BBFC, most local authorities allow it to be shown with no questions asked if the cinema only allows in people over the relevant age limit (12, 15 or 18). If a film has not been rated by the BBFC—as is the case with a lot of arthouse and obscure foreign films—then the local authority has to approve that film before it is shown. The local authority also has the right to ban a film even if it has been granted a BBFC certificate. (The entire county of Cornwall, in an effort to protect the morals of the God-fearing Cornish people, banned Monty Python’s Life of Brian, prompting a cinema in Devon to start offering coach trips across the county boundary to watch it there.)There are some other restrictions: the BBFC also rate pornographic films, with a certificate R18. These can only be sold in licensed sex shops to people over 18. They can also refuse to issue a certificate, which practically stops the film from being seen, or issue it only with a lot of cuts demanded—they have done this for a variety of films. During the 1980s, a lot of fairly low-budget horror movies were refused certificates due to the “video nasties” moral panic: people were concerned that people would, thanks to the advent of VCRs, rewind and watch the gory bits of a film over and over again, rather than watch the whole film in full, and this would turn people into raving monsters. It hasn’t just been crude pornographic films and low-budget horror movies—more mainstream movies that have been prevented from release in the UK by the BBFC include Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs and Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers. The BBFC can also issue certificates to video games.Due to a colossal fuck-up on the part of the government, the Video Recordings Act 1984, which institutes the video censorship regime with the BBFC ratings, wasn’t actually enforceable for most of its life, because the government had not sent a notification to the European Commission informing them of the passage of the Act. So they had to pass it again in 2010 in order to actually enforce the law.Being a member of an extremist group: as part of the Terrorism Act 2000, the government can proscribe various extremist terrorist groups. This has included all sorts of generally awful people: Islamist extremists like al-Qaeda, ISIS and our very own homegrown terrorist-wannabe halfwits like Anjem Choudary’s Islam4UK, as well as neo-Nazis like the banned National Action group. Being a member of one of these groups is a criminal offence.Watching television without a TV License: the BBC is funded through everyone who wants to watch over-the-air broadcast television paying for it through a TV License. Opponents of this describe it as a ghastly, regressive, Orwellian tax forcibly extracted from people by the government in return for the unwanted broadcasts of the state broadcaster and can’t they just privatise already? Supporters think £140 a year for eight national television stations, 11 national radio stations, a bunch of local services, podcasts, online streams, a pretty decent website, a broad stab at something approximating neutral, unbiased news reporting and no goddamn adverts is quite reasonable.If you’ve got a television that’s not hooked up to an antenna and all you do is play video games on it or watch Netflix, you are exempt. (Also, you used not to pay for it if you were over 75. No longer.)Standing on the left on an escalator in the London Underground: not actually legally banned, but people will tut, mutter “idiot” under their breath and shoot daggers at you with their eyes. And they’d be right to do so, you monster.Image by Onatcer - File:Stand on the right.jpg on Wikimedia Commons
