Now that smoking is to be banned from our public places I feel we need to bully the fat to retain our notions of typical British fairness. After it has become illegal to be fat I suggest we attack sunbathers for putting themselves at risk of melanoma. In fact I'm starting a rumour, right here, about the risks of passive sunbathing, with quotes from such erudite scholars as myself - "I watched my neighbour sunbathing for many years and suffered erectile dysfunction with my wife. I know it's not cancer but I blame sunbathing entirely for our marital problems and the court order my neighbour now has against my sun-induced stalking."

So after we have tamed the wild beasts that are fat/who smoke/drinkers/drug abusers and refuse them medical care/cheap travel/basic human rights, how long will it be before snowboarding is deemed an unacceptable risk by your local GP/hospital and you can only receive care by paying a premium on top of your standard NI rate?

Whether it's true or not, it's a damn good idea... It costs more in fuel to get these fat b#@tards off the ground, so why should 'averege' people have to pay... Unfortunately however, it does mean that before long, I too will have to pay this, but that should give me a good reason to atop eating so much...

They charge us extra for our excess baggage, so why not charge a tubbo for theirs?

You should stand on the scales with your luggage to get a total weight and pay accordingly......................
