What we can confirm

Electrical Safety First has publicly warned UK travelers about the risks of dangerous travel adaptors sold online and urged Brits heading abroad to buy only safe adaptors from reputable retailers for trips this summer, effectively advising them to avoid unsafe or substandard plug adaptors.[1][2][3] The phrasing "should avoid dangerous plug adaptors" is a reasonable summary of this guidance, though it is not a direct verbatim quote from a single sentence but rather a paraphrase of the charity’s warnings and advice in its press release and media coverage.[1][2]
