I'm furious that the government wants to abolish flea markets on Sundays. In Germany Sunday is traditionally a day of rest and only specific establishments (restaurants, bars, gas stations...) are allowed to make trades and it depends on the event. However a court ruling said that flea markets with a predominantly commercial slant are not allowed, whereas a flea market next to an event (festivities) or charity flea markets are OK. All my life I'm going to flea markets on Sundays and NOW they think it's not OK. There are also few flea markets on Saturdays but most people don't go there because people work on Saturdays and there is other stuff to be done.
