A Joke From The Past - A Law Known As Daylight Robbery

This could only happen in Britain and to be honest not a great deal has changed since the days of William The Third, this law came into force 1696 - Got To Pick A Pocket Or Two.

There must be strange laws around the Globe past and present it would be interesting to hear of some of them.

I am surprised our esteemed thieves, er-um I mean leaders haven’t come up with the Gravity Tax yet. The combined weight of you and your possessions is assessed for their “Gravity Footprint.” Weight, as everyone knows, throws the planet’s rotation and orbit around the sun into unpredictable wobbles, affecting everything from sunrise and sunset times to climate and even mating seasons for wombats. Combatting gravity is everyone’s responsibility.
