Yet again the taxpayers are funding this nonsense. It really is a farce. Enjoy
Two female sunbathers prosecuted for flashing their breasts at CCTV camera
By JAMES MILLS -
23rd August 2007
Abbi-Louise Maple (left) and Rachel Marchant flashed their breasts at a CCTV camera after it swivelled in their direction
When Abbi-Louise Maple and Rachel Marchant saw a CCTV camera trained on them as they sat on a beach, they had a mischievous idea.
The 21-year-olds lifted their tops and flashed their bare chests at the camera before collapsing in a fit of giggles.
The young women's friends thought their prank was hilarious.
The CCTV operator, however, didn't see the funny side and called the police.
Minutes later, the two blondes were arrested, questioned and then charged with committing an act outraging public decency - an offence which carries a maximum sentence of six months prison or a £5,000 fine.
The pair, who appeared before magistrates on Wednesday and pleaded not guilty to the charges, will now stand trial before a crown court jury at a cost to the taxpayer of £8,000 a day.

A little medieval ... In Ontario it is legal for women to go topless. Unfortunately, not too many are taking advantage of their legal right. Howver, hairy, bald, potbellied males do it all the time
