Not with regards to causing offense. There is no concrete definition of what "offence" is. It's something that every individual person sets the boundary of. A couple of hundred years ago taking the lord's name in vain was offensive. To a tiny minority it still is. Same with insulting royals. How can people be held account to something that's impossible to define?
