British Government in Hanging Gangs Amnesty

The British Government today announced a coat-hangar amnesty, urging people to bring their hangars to police collection points scattered throughout the country. The recent introduction of the Dangerous Hanging Objects Bill (2009) means that all coat-hangars wishing to hang in British wardrobes must register with the Ministry of Household Objects, to gain permission to remain in British closets. Hangars found to be flouting regulations will be sentenced by the Magistrates Courts, facing punishments of re-purposing, thought to mean re fashioning into useful hooks. Minister for Household Objects, Hubert Hoss warned people of the dangers presented by coat-hangars and urged them to hand in their hangars. No spokesperson from the coat-hangars has come forward to reply to these regulations.
