The relevant official UK Trading Standards article is here (type 'hot tub' into the search bar or alert no 2108-0216) https://www.tradingstandards.uk/consumers/product-recalls-and-safety-notices

Apparently lack of internal earthing connections and insulation failure due to water ingress has resulted in it being classed as a 'serious risk of electric shock' to the user. The water becomes energised to supply voltage and the user suffers a shock upon contact with any object in the vicinity at ground potential.
 
For the two days a year you'd be in one it's not worth the risk. Even legit, they're going to degrade quick as you're moving them in and out of storage annually.

Get a proper one or stop pretending lol
