If there's rcd's or rcbos on the circuits in proximity why do you want to bond?
Supplementary bonding in the 16 th for the bathroom has to be on circuits in the room, so shaver and lights would apply.
Could you be more specific?

Ive noticed my boilers pipes are crossed bonded but when looking further the earth wire is cut and doesnt go anywhere.there is a fused switch to the boiler and was wondering if it was ok to to wire it to the earth in there as i cant get it back to the consumer unit without ripping the house apart

Please confirm if the fuse board has rcd protection (ubits with a test switch) and what earth cables terminate at the MET (which is normally by the mains head / meter and is normally a shiny terminal block with green yellow cables on it).
As mentioned before, lets see if you need this before doing any work!

It won't.
The pipes are bonded together, not to anything else.
Plumbers like doing this but it is not necessary (except in exceptional circumstances).
Not necessary - unless...
...the boiler is exposed in a bathroom and you do not have RCD protection for the bathroom circuits and it is not bonded elsewhere.
Is your main water pipe also bonded back to the MET or continuous with the gas pipe bonding(bonded together) ?
