Barcelona wants to make wearing a swimsuit in the street an offence

Barcelona wants to make wearing a swimsuit in the street an offence: "From next summer, it could be an offence in Barcelona to walk through the streets in your swimsuit, under a by-law amendment which was being debated in committee at City Hall on Thursday.

If it’s passed, fines of up to 500 € could be imposed for those who refuse to put on their clothes if they are caught naked or semi-naked in the street.

20 minutos indicates that the ICV party, which governs Barcelona City Hall in coalition with PSC, are however strongly against the move. Their leader, Ricard Gomà, has described it as ‘ridiculous’.
20 minutos indicates that, if passed by the committee, the measure could go to the vote at City Hall next month.

It follows a City Hall campaign last summer to advise pedestrians to cover up their top half while travelling on the buses or using public facilities."
