Well rubbing earth of potatoes makes sense, otherwise you're literally paying for dirt.

to think of it now.
I know someone who rubs dirt off spuds, takes the tops of carrots,the stalks off broccoli etc. and tries things like grapes before buying.
You're not allowed to try grapes before buying, bugger!

True, I just wouldn't have the nerve to do it.

I reckon it's people who try them that drop them on the floor for people like me to slip on. >_<

Ed f**king Milliband and his pretendy common background. Labour arseholes are just as privileged as the Tories. stick them up a close with an outside toilet and they wouldn't know what to do.

Today when I was reading the papers I thought for the first time in my entire life 'Maybe I just won't bother voting'.
It chilled me to the bone, I abhor that people who have the opportunity, nay, the right, to vote, don't vote.
And especially so as a woman.
But I genuinely thought 'Oh what's the f**king point'.
A sad, sad time for politics and for society and for everything that anyone with a shred of decency or intellect has ever fought for.
Yes. You do wonder who the Hell's worth it it but rather than not use the vote that so many people fought for us to get, I would go in and spoil my paper.
Why the hell isn't there a 'none of the above' option?!
It wouldn't even need to mean anything initially, just that people who don't want to vote for any of the f**ktards could express that officially rather than be lumped in with upper-middle-class wails of 'oh the plebs don't vote because they're disassociated from the conversation about society'.
Too f**king right we are pals, don't mean we're thick though.

It used to be Liberal - but even that's been taken from us.
Down here in Brighton, we vote in a Green MP and council, but they don't seem any better than the other parties.

Yes, let the plebs lead the plebs! I'm going to vote for Nick Griffin - oh wait, he went to Cambridge. Dammit, let's go full Italy and vote for pornstars and criminals, because that's worked out really well for them.
I won't be happy until we have a Prime Minister that hasn't been educated to a high level in our finest institutions. Bring me a thicko who thinks and talks like what I do. And who can take a shit outside in Scotland.

We've got a prime minister and chancellor of the exchequer educated to a high level at our finest instituions and that's working out really well for us all. We might as well try a thick bloke.

It's Godwin time!
Now there was a man with the common touch who could rally the people and he didn't have a fancy education.
Hopefully it won't be long until Boris throws his hat in the ring.
Yeh except he worked as a house painter and wasn't shy of swinging his fists down the pub.
Fortunately none of our current bunch are up for either a punch up or a hard days graft.
Except perhaps Ken Livingstone who also has the moustache.

Wish I'd known a few years ago that Ken Livingstone was up for a punch up!
