...The toilets will have weight-sensitive floors to make sure only one person is using each cubicle at a time...

...The water jets will also be used to prevent smoking and drug-taking...

I’m a normal man with a healthy libido but I cannot imagine ever being hard up enough to do it in a bathroom stall.

Lotta big brits who will trigger the weight sensors.

Yeah. I guess they saw all the fat Americans and said, Let's get fat, too!

Trust me they needed no prodding from Americans to get fat.

But the point of my post wasn’t to bash a segment of brits for being fat, its the whole idea of not considering large people using these things and triggering the weight sensors. I didn’t bring up fat americans because this article is focusing on a liberal british ‘solution’ that hasn’t been thought through.

Weight sensitive floors...first fat guy that goes on for a daily constitutional and gets hosed down will sue them sideways.

I was thinking something similar.

Seems to me they are trying to fix something that isn't broken but what do I know about their toilets...

Jeez, you go in there with a stomach bug or something to violently puke your brains out, the whole room attacks you and throws the door open so everyone can watch. WTH? Sounds like an episode of The Twilight Zone.
