Beg to differ on Ghost Koi. Nobody has heard of them = not Council.
Course they have, haven’t they ? Hmmmm thought they were commonly known as the cheap koi, maybe not though
Keeping fish, inside or outside, is Council. Not as far up the scale as snakes, but not far off.

We were in a Chinese restaurant in Basingstoke a few weeks back, a family of fatties waddled in and were moaning about the small Chinese portions. The waitress suggested the portions were normal and they need to double order.

Best for them would be the eat all you can slop. Awful places with food dropped everywhere and cross contamination in the dishes. One in Nottingham limited how many times you can go up. I think people were having 5 plates or so.

Fat people. Council

Stolen pub glasses is very council. However I must admit to doing the same with a Guinness glass as well

Isn't it a middle class trophy?

Council would have smashed it and glassed someone, rather than protecting the glass, washing it, and re-using it (keeping it 'green').
