Looking for a place to die in Great Britain? Better make sure it's not in Parliament or else you could face some trouble with the law.
Queen Elizabeth II's speech in the British parliament Tuesday may have been routine but at least nobody got bored to death. That would have been against the law. Dying in parliament is an offence and is also by far the most absurd law in Britain, according to a survey of nearly 4,000 people by a television channel showing a legal drama series.Ninth on the list? Entering Parliament in a suit of armour. We wonder if someone were to die in Parliament while wearing a suit of armour if they are prosecuted only for the more severe crime.
