Time to kill this botched and grossly unfair legislation once and for all.

This was an absolute joke of a law, but how the hell are they going to check for beds? Surely everyone will just say there's no bed in there?

They should have considered that before bringing in such a ridiculous law.  They won't be able to check everyone.  The more people who file an appeal and win, the more likely it is to be scrapped.
