It's the sort of visual thing you'd see on British comedy shows, or they would turn round and have no arses in their trousers, refering to the liberal and highly-sexual nature of NL. I remember back in the 80s, when long hair was more fashionable, that NL squaddies were allowed to keep theirs, and had to wear a hair-net under their helmets, when on exercise. Also the fact that in th NL army they could go on strike.

Enough to make any old "Colonel Blimp" spin in his grave. :-)
