It is an offence, punishable by law, for any person to enter or attempt to enter the Ground whilst in the possession of a controlled container which is capable of holding liquid and which if thrown would be capable of causing injury to another person; or whilst in possession of alcohol; or whilst drunk; or whilst in possession of any article or substance whose main purpose is the emission of a flare for the purposes of illuminating or signalling or the emission of smoke or a visible gas; or whilst in possession of any article which is a firework. All persons entering the Ground may be searched by the police and any person who refuses to submit to a search will be refused entry to or ejected from the Ground.

 

Is this the most flagrantly flouted law in the world?

Leaving a car parked, unattended ? Is that not some prehistoric law that was never removed from our judicial system ?

I believe Uk copyright laws actually state that if you record a programme off the TV you can legally watch it just once and must then record over it.

I'm sure the vast majority of the "you can kill a welshman if you expose your nipple and kill him with a ice-penis" laws were repealed by Labour in their first term.

 

As for the UK copyright, I'm fairly sure that time-shifting is an exemption from a lot of the law, so as to make taping telly programs perfectly legal - you can't loan the tapes to anyone though.
