Hats Banned in Yorkshire to Aid CCTV Identification
(Posted by mordaxus)
The Telegraph reports in "Hats banned from Yorkshire pubs over CCTV fears" that
Pubs in Yorkshire have been ordered to ban people from wearing flat caps or other hats so troublemakers can be more easily recognised.
And in other news this weekend, MPs have stamped their little feet insisting that Britain is not a surveillance society.

As an avid hat wearer, I'm appalled. Hear hear!
I'm wondering if this will ever make its way over to the states?
