Tony Blair has revealed that August 8 is going to be declared as public naked day, in order to deal with the alarmingly high levels of temperature anticipated from the start of this August. The plans have caused a divide amongst the labour party, although Tony Blair has is certain to get the vote of his colleges and the public holiday will be declared official in a public address in the near future
Health organisations are pleased with the initiative as they say the government are doing their bit to deal with the soaring temperature rates. Bill Hailey from Health U.K said “We welcome Tony Blairs plans and we also ask the government to do more in order to raise awareness over health so the effects of high temperature will be more controlled.”
If this public holiday does happen it will be the first of its kind anywhere in the world. The last place this was allowed was France but was banned in 1978 when some citizens decided excrement was part of the law and caused a huge problem.
World leaders have praised Tony Blair in being brave to introduce this new law which is certain to cause resentment from certain sectors of the population other the less the public holiday is set to make history and to be one of the biggest and most controversial laws to be passed through court.
