Introduction

It was in the bad days of slavery when King George III opposed William Pitt’s plans to abolish slavery that a law was passed whereby any woman could be naked anywhere in the country. This law was intended to be for the slave owners to to be able to keep their female slaves naked wherever and whenever they wanted to but who could have predicted that that law could be used in the defence of a female university student who decided that it would be fun to streak a football match four centuries later.
