We all like to think we're decent sorts, but every Brit harbours a few ethically wobbly customs. Rank these from 'perfectly justified' to 'okay, that one's a bit off'.
Put the items in your preferred order.

Pretending Not to See a Charity Mugger
Suddenly fascinated by your phone the moment a clipboard-wielder makes eye contact. Is dodging the direct debit really a moral failing, or self-preservation?

Keeping the Extra Change
They handed you a tenner instead of a fiver. You noticed. You walked. Victimless, or the first step down a slippery slope to Fagin?

Nicking Office Stationery
You've paid for it in unpaid overtime, surely? The great British tradition of quietly liberating supplies from the supply cupboard.

Fibbing About Your Kid's Age at the Cinema
Twelve quid a ticket is daylight robbery, so who's really the thief here? A parental rite of passage or teaching junior to lie?

Reviewing a Restaurant You Never Went To
They cancelled your booking, so you cancelled their Tripadvisor rating. Righteous consumer justice or cowardly digital sabotage?
Drag the photo to reorder
Is it ethical to pretend you've read the group chat when you've actually muted it for weeks?
