The sign was removed last week by our rangers.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Obviously neither this spokesperson nor the rangers who have removed the sign are not aware of British nudity laws.

Of course it could also be that there is too much regulation and communication. People can get overloaded with that. In my job however, it is common practice to first check if there are rules and agreements on things, before acting. (I wonder what happened with the sign too. Did it get returned to the owner or the person who put it up as a courtesy for other visitors?)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"189\" height=\"179\" src=\"https:\/\/zjuzdme.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Selection_005.jpg\" alt=\"People at nude beach\" class=\"wp-image-2634\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This is yet another sign (pun intended) where people are reacting on the trigger word &#8216;nude&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is sad to see that there is no progress being made in this area, in a time where the world is warming up and clothes are more and more unnecessary. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That is the title of an article from a British newspaper that I found in my news feed a few days ago.
