It’s illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament!
Britain apparently has some pretty ludicrous laws. You can’t die in the House of Parliament, because it is a royal palace. Anyone who would die there is entitled to a state funeral. If they notice you looking even the slightest bit sick, they carry you out of the building immediately.
People are also not allowed to wear armor in the building, because it is meant to be a peaceful place. It is also illegal to put a stamp on an envelope with the Monarch on it upside down. Other crazy British laws include one that states all sturgeons belong to the crown. Fishermen who catch sturgeons must call it in and may be allowed to keep it, but by no means are they allowed to sell it.
Pregnant women are allowed to relieve themselves anywhere, including in a policeman’s helmet, and to combat gluttony a 1644 law says that mince pies are not to be eaten on Christmas Day.
