A good question. It's hard to know who does what and how much has been "outsourced". I don't even know if Border Force is civil service...

Correct. The MOB cannot slip out of the harness and is less prone to injury. Without leg loops there is a fair chance they will slide...

No, it's you that's talking bollocks. A fall onto a single side attachment will kill you, it is not a "commonly chosen" way of working...

In fact, even those with leg loops, the loops meet no lifting strength requirement. They are required to hold the jacket in place during...

No news from @stranded, perhaps we should run a sweepstake: Got a taxi to the filling station; Is in Exeter Jail after being found...

And deciding not to stop at a fuel station and therefore bing low in fuel when safely parked at home - is far from an “emergency”. There...

Wrong! With a side attachment the body will bend while lifting, potential for serious injury. Proper harnesses have the lifting point...

It's not fine to use, it's illegal. The law doesn't say anything about "emergencies".

One thing that grinds my gears is any suggestion of committing tax evasion because one’s ‘unlikely to get caught’. I don’t think...

As I read it, the big problem with this product is a LJ is not a lifting harness. Or should I say the majority of LJ's are not designed...

Without giving power and torque that still means nothing. I give up.

Good luck with that. See both the OP and my post#21. There is a gulf between "should" and reality

The Chinese do

That is not quite what the law says. The 6 years is the time limit for being able to make a claim, not the expected life of the product...

You're missing something there. A spec saying "series wound" tells you nothing about the load capacity of that particular motor.
