People are really going all in on the Welsh government’s decision to classify clothing as a non-essential good during their current ‘firebreak lockdown’ and the latest person to do this is 34 year old Sally Love, who pictured herself covering her breasts with Prosecco and cauliflower in order to protest it.

She shared the following picture and status update via her Facebook account and then said the following about why she had chosen to do it:

I think the ‘clothing ban’ has really shown us that 2020 could not get any more weird.

The government haven’t taken into account what is deemed ‘essential’ or ‘non-essential’ by the public.

In my opinion, the majority of people won’t be rushing to a supermarket to buy clothes with the high street or small business clothes shops being closed.

Where I think it has really struck a chord with people is buying baby and children’s clothes.

I get that they were trying to be fair to the smaller independent clothes shops, but feel this has just pushed people to purchase online if they need something urgently.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve never bought a non-essential pair of knickers. I deem them as fairly essential.

It’s not just limited to clothes. I’ve never bought a kettle and thought, you know what, I’ll keep that and use it in a few weeks time.

I’ve bought it because I needed it, likely that day.

It was just a play on words that if clothing is deemed non-essential, then does that mean I have to wear them [the cauliflower and prosecco]?

Luckily a lot of people got the joke, but I have had a few people question whether I own clothes or not.

I’ve also received a few messages from people thanking me for baring my scars. I’ve had two bowel resections over the years for Crohn’s disease.

I am glad that this has helped some people with their confidence with their scars.

Sounds like she’s made her point fairly well and there was the added bonus of people thanking her for baring her scars as well, so seems as if it’s been a fairly successful Facebook post overall there. Sadly, it doesn’t seem as though the Welsh government are going to do anything about changing their firebreak rules so it’s all vain, but I guess at least the world knows how stupid everyone seems to think they are because of it. That’s something?

For more of the same, check out this guy who went shopping in his underpants to protest the new rules. Maybe that was a bit much?
