Harriet Harperson eyes up naturists

August 26, 2009

Guru's favourite female MP - Harriet Harman, sorry, Har-person is at it again. She's found another 'victim' group to protect and looks set to legislate to 'protect' them.

A submission written by campaign group British Naturism has been included in a review into discrimination by the Government Equalities Office, reports the Times.

"Naturists encounter prejudice in employment," it reads. "This is a particular problem for people in the caring professions and education. Any occupation requiring an enhanced Criminal Record Bureau check is potentially a serious problem. Naturists sometimes have to choose between career and continuing to be a naturist."

Guru can see how that could be the case. But is nudity really an offence? Guru likes nothing better than wondering around his living room in the buff of a weekend. It's only when he ventures to the shops to by a paper that potential problems occur.

If someone likes to get their kit off, either at home or in specially designated locations, then that shouldn't impact on their chances of employment. All Guru asks is that they let him into their little nuddie club.
