I am not that surprised given that at some time (in the past 20 years?) ES
lampholders appear to have become legal in the UK (I'm sure they never used
to be) and they have a large _easily_touched_ metal part that could randomly
be connected to live or neutral (I suspect that if Tony found himself having
to install one he would make sure that the screw part went to neutral - I'm
also sure that most installers don't bother)
