I am not saying ladders are against the law, but if you use em you have to secure em, like these sky people do.
"show me where parliment has passed the law" LOL ignorance. Google "work at height regulations 2005" and you'll see it. These are not guidelines, they are regulations, ie if you break em you are working illegally.
We had this argument a few weeks back on here. I was right then, I am still right now, but numpties would rather attack me than face the facts. Unless you secure you ladder, you are breaking the law.
Its that simple.
