Great breakthrough in Saudi Arabia. The Shura Advisory Council, appointed by the king, has struck a bold blow for the freedom of clapping (with an “l“).

Kuwait News reports that the appointed Saudi Shura Advisory Council has met and voted to allow ‘clapping’ in its chambers. Yes, you read it right: that is clapping (with an “l“) and not to be pronounced the Japanese way. Clapping (with an “l“), as in applauding. Members and guests will be allowed to clap ((with an “l”)) right inside the august chamber. They are not, however, expected to bring along whatever it is they will be clapping for. Whatever they will all be clapping for must come out of the members of the Shura who are all appointed by the king for whom they will always clap so long as he reappoints them.

No word yet about allowing drums, cymbals and the guitar.

Cheers
