Quote:
A gathering of angry mothers has caused a disturbance by slipping packets of pies and chips through the railings at a school in Rotheram in protest against the school's (government backed) healthy eating campaign.

The roly-poly mums are angered by the fact their offspring can no longer nip out at lunch-time to the local chippy.

"It's a ***in disgrace" snarled Alison Smith, worried mother of three, juggling the greasy food parcels under her blubbery arms. "Them kids gets no chance of a nice proper dinner. They's starving in there."

Equally concerned for the children's nutritional well being, butted in another pie-loving mother of two "Ow's they s'pposed to stay awake in the classes on that rabbit food" chipping in "Let alone do their omework"

In scenes more familiar to a Superbowl finale, several of the concerned mums attempted to block the school security, as others slipped food packets under the fence.

From the wobbly throng, eventually herded away by riot police, came the bellow of an offense-blocking walrus "Them teachers are off their rocker ... oi, get your ands off me .. I've sin you down Frankies Chippy"

The question arises ... just who exactly is out to lunch?

They even had an interview with one of the mothers on breakfast tv. She said that they only get 30 minutes lunchbreak and if they have school dinners they spend most of their break in a queue so don't get any exercise... wonder how much exercise is needed to burn off pie, chips and a doughnut?!? I put the treadmill on calorie count once and worked out it took 20 mins uphill running to burn off a mint aero :0(

If Jamie Oliver was dead he'd be spinning in his grave!!

tavsan0 recommends....

Blood Diner (1987)
Directed by Jackie Kong

Two cannibals/health food diner owners are on a wacky quest to restore life to the five million year old goddess Shitaar. The two set about getting the required parts - the ingredients for a "blood buffet". Their adversaries are the police: the chief with a Russian accent, the "player" detective, and the new Yorker with an Australian accent..........(edited review coz original review is too naughty!!)

Limp cabbage and frog-spawn - pooh!! ... they only serve Jamie Oliver school dinners these days ... you need to reserve your table in advance ...

As for a daily scoff from a trough of chips ... have you seen the flatulent blubber wobbling along the pavements of the UK ... it's no wonder Japanese whaling ships have recently been spotted dropping anchor just off the English coast ...
