Smoking and fatties

Sunday, January 4th, 2009

Read a piece in the paper yesterday where a Liverpool councillor said that smoking litterers were 'disgusting'. So I looked her up and saw that she was fat. Emailed her and pointed out that while smoking is banned on aircraft, lard arses are free to occupy 1.5 seats and squash their neighbours against the bulkhead. Think there was a Supreme Court decision on that - something about violation of rights, no doubt, fatties rights not mine.

She replied and told me that her size was due to a medical condition. I had a twinge of guilt then but just a twinge. She is responsible for the environment in Liverpool and I am certain that Liverpool is not dying of a surfeit of cigarette butts.
