Title: This is really getting stupid.
Post by: Trevor on May 13, 2020, 11:03:48 AM
My government can now legislate what its' citizens can wear during the winter lockdown!  :hatred:

Which government - other than North Korea - legislates which clothes its' citizens can wear?

This is just the first step in their plan. 

It's all building up to the government legally demanding you to wear clean underwear.

Is there something your government doesn't want people to wear? The list includes, well, normal clothing, so I don't understand this lockdown dress code.

Or do people have a habit of walking around naked?  :question:

According to the article, it's not a list of what people can wear, it's a list of what retailers can sell. Essential items that justify reopening retail outlets that would otherwise be closed during the pandemic.

There's actually a bit more to it than that: this is a press release from the official opposition party here:
