I'm surprised at your wish.

It seems you're probably unaware that any standard in order to claim a CE mark will indeed be a British Standard, and can be purchased through the BSI.

One advantage of EU conformity was that I could buy the same standard overseas, in English, at a much lower price that I could purchase from BSI. I guess that was called progress?

No, it was called lowering standards to conform with the EU.

But I am amused by the idea that one can buy a standard, rather then conform to one.

CE is just Chinese Export. You see this mark on all far east crap that cannot have conformed to any standard

The cost of the documentation defining the standard can cost a small fortune.

Or you can read it online for f*ck all.

I would question your claim. Either way it is still a British Standard.

Your command of English seems to fail you, as well as causing self-amusement. In order to know whether you conform to a British Standard, you have to read the corresponding document.

Do feel free to indicate where I can get BSI standards for f*ck all.

That isn't buying a standard. That is buying a reference manual of a standard.

You don't say 'I bought a brand new jaguar for £15' when all you bought was the manual
