Can I just add my favourite Bushism.

Dubya: "The French Don't Have a Word for entrapeneur"

If you don't get it, Entrapeneur is a french word.

lmao. Blair has been useless from day 1. Look at our education system. Im in high school and half the people in my class can hardly read. Anyway if blair did ban mc donalds then mc donalds would probably sue saying why havent any of the others been shut down

Look at the NHS, Can't cure cancer patients 'cause they can't afford it.

Have you seen the little card in mcdonalds where it says:

"EVER WONDERED WHAT'S IN OUR BURGERS"?

You pick it up. And on the back it tells you how to submit a comment/question to macdonalds.

lol thats random

the card thing not NHS thing

Random. But True. They are little red cards.

i never seen the cards but they have a nutrition thing on which they put on the trays but u have never seen an ingrediants list

According to what the governments advice is, i should be massively obease, yet in reality im underweight. The governments response to problems such as these tends to me knee jerk reactions, and often are flawed on many levels as is the evidence there based on.

Maybe the popularity among people there, but the UK has definatly been embracing our culture, that definatly isnt slowing down.

And yeah, this is probably our fault. Every problem calls for "Blame America first". Its probably the spread of Fast Food places.
