Neither resident nor frequent visitor to the UK, so I'm behind the times when I ask: I beg your fucking pardon?

Is there further reading on this inane nanny-state horror, ideally via a Wikipedia article on the law or gentleman's agreement amongst the carriers?

Furthermore, is this more common than I assume, and I simply don't notice because I don't stray too far from the mainstream?
