Seem that the UK is going to at least try and clamp down on psychic frauds (is there any other kind of psychic?)
Britain's clairvoyants, mediums and mystics foresee trouble ahead.

A small group of "spiritual workers" demonstrated in London on Friday against government plans to regulate their services with consumer protection rules. They fear the move could leave them open to lawsuits by disgruntled customers and troublesome skeptics.

"We live in a very litigious society," said Carole McEntee-Taylor, a spiritual healer and general secretary of the newly founded Spiritual Workers' Association. "There are frauds out there, but to tar everybody with the same brush is really naive."
Naive is it? My dear, that is a wide brush and there's nothing naive about it. You're all frauds, and parasites of the gullible.

When, I wonder, will common sense finally begin to show itself in this country?

Probably never....
