My comment on this:
The F-word uttered with a posh accent is still the F-word. Uttering it with a plum in one's mouth doesn't make it any better, any more acceptable, especially from our sitting prime minister. A few days ago, we read that Nicolas Sarkozy had told the editor of Le Point that he should "smash his face in" for calling his wife, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, a "man-eater." Now the F-word from our 'Conservative' prime minister. What are we going to hear next? Clearly, the calibre of our leaders is going down and down. – © Mark
