Laying Down the Law

From the Daily Mail yesterday:

If you wonder just what Labour has been doing since it came to power, the news this week that it has put 1,018 new crimes on the statute books might help answer the question. Among them are a heavy fine for assisting a woman in childbirth if you are not a qualified midwife, and six months in jail for holding a concert in a church hall without a license.

Good night! How much does one of those church hall concert licenses cost? I've played concerts in church halls! I didn't know I was such a menace to society!
