NAG News. / Daily Mail "Inspire"
« on: May 10, 2022, 11:29:13 AM »
Hello.  I am wondering how many of you caught site of this piece from The Mail, Monday May9th. 2022.  It was part of the “Inspire” section by Jo Bryant.  (Debretts Author).

The last sentence in particular seems to suggest either a lack of research regarding the actual wording of the law, or, a deliberate attempt to convince those who agree with her that it is illegal still.

Quote:
  "While bikinis and swimming costumes are fine during the warm months, going topless or worse, naked in any garden that's overlooked is most certainly not all right.   
The retirees next door and the couple with young children, bouncing on a trampoline on the other side, don't want to glance over the fence and alight on you  in your birthday suit.
Living next door to a naturist is frankly, embarrassing: there have been prosecutions for "outraging public decency" after complaints from neighbours"

Isn't it the responsibility of the editors to ensure that if personal opinions are printed they should be highlighted as such?

NAG News. / Hengistbury Head
« on: April 04, 2022, 10:42:51 AM »
It seems that the letters complaining about naturists at Hengistbury Head have started earlier this year. Interesting, but not surprising, that the Bournemouth Echo is happy to publish a letter in full which refers to us as "deviants". Encouraging though, there are more supporters than insults or criticism directed towards us this time. This type of publicity offers an opportunity for respondents to point out what most people already know: any beach can be used by naturists if it suits their preference.  However, most of us would prefer to adopt the practice which seems to be the order of the day at many of the sandy coves along Dorset coastline, which turn into "naturist beaches” if the naturists arrive first in the day, and sets the scene for everyone else who arrives later on afterwards too!
