Stupid laws in Britain

Britain is an old-fashioned place with wonderful history. Till nowdays it has monarchy and people are
still turned into knights and the weirdest things are... ...laws. Now, we are going to introduce some of
them.

If you wear a suit of armor in Parliament, they’re legally


allowed to cut your head off.

Fish are Slovak


traditional food for Christmas, but did you know that you CAN
NOT handle salmon in suspicious circumstances in Britain? It
means you aren’t
allowed to
suspiciously walk/run
with salmon.

And one from 1898 talks about gambling in the library. So


if you want to play poker or blackjack, you would be arrested.

You can’t shake out a dirty rug in public after 8 am. Does it need more to
speak about? Just DO NOT clean your rug in public after 8 am.

The another one talks about clothes. First,


you can’t wear an outrageous double ruff
(that thing which looks like white circle around your neck and it’s tied like a scarf). And the second
one, you can’t be sockless within a hundhundredds of the Queen.

Another one from 1839: You can’t sing nasty/ lewd/obscene ballads in
public. Just in case.

We all have been doing this in childhood, but you can be arrested in Britain
if you do that. Knocking at the door and running out. My question is, who
was so annoyed by teens and kids, that he/she made it a law?
