English Mothers-in-Law have reached the end of their tethers at being the butt of endless jokes, both at the wedding reception and afterwards. In the London Borough of Barnet, therefore, it has now become illegal to crack a joke that makes mothers-in-law seem anything less than delightful. The “offensively sexist” nature of these jokes has ensured that any best man planning to make this the focal point of his speech is going to need to rethink his strategy if he does not want to spend the night in a jail cell!

We at Celebration completely support any movement towards the abolishment of shameless sexism.
