Well, I suppose you could say the dictionary definition of "joint" describes the connection of the socket to the back box with screws.
Accepting that means that such an installation would not be compliant with regulation D.29 without the use of a lead.
As for the BS for sockets, I believe the design has always linked at least one screw hole to the earth terminal, even the earliest late 1940's BS1363 sockets I have seen have been built this way.
