Do you think it’s unsafe ?
Tricky to say with a single photo

Just the fact that it was wired with flex
There’s nothing stopping use of flex in fixed installations but every point needs to have a CPC run to it.
Where does the cable come from ?

It was found in the loft connected at the bedroom next door to the bathroom in the light jb, so when I was dropping neutral to my switches I disconnected it as I don’t know why they ran passed the bathroom jb and 3m to next room
In the ideal world it needs replacing for a 3 core cable
Tbh it looks fine

No movement although I will have a look to find the other end
Except the big book outlines the need for a CPC to be at every accessory whether it’s needed or not. Doesn’t mean it has to be connected to the accessory
Not necessarily needed if it's already installed. On a new install of course you will need a cpc regardless of what it's connected to.
Pre (1966) lighting circuits (with no earth) for example it's still permitted (only if class 2 accessories are being used)
Brown and blue is a long time after 1966
Of course that was just an example.
