Was this an April fool's joke. Can I no longer admire ladies pleasure cushions?

Surely this must be a joke? I first read about it in the Daily Mail so I thought it might be a little over reactionary but then I searched on Google and:-

Don't call the barmaid 'love', by order of Harriet Harman| News | This is London

Well, is it true? It can't be? I didn't check the date of the paper ............. curses! Shirley they wouldn't use a government minister's name in .................. What if there is a Heather Mills type working behind the bar? I won't be able to speak in a pub again.

I know I am easy to please but some of these jokes made me laugh:-
Heard the one about the barmaid and the thirsty giraffe? | the Daily Mail

If it weren't for the fact that I know some women actually like men ........... well, some of them ............... well, some of the time ......... I'd be really despondent.

Please, someone tell me this is a bad joke.

Sometimes. My Mum gets it and saves it for me to do the back page crossword over my lunchtime sarnie. If I finish it quickly (the crossword, not the sarnie) then I have a browse through paper.

Anyway, the question here is not the DM scare tactics but whether the story is actually true? Who is this Harriet Harman? I assume she must have a decent rack if she made it onto the cabinet?

Yes, I am joking. Mind you, she is/was 'affairs minister'? Wey hey?

In defence of the DM I will admit they have found a niche in the market but how can any of us actually say for sure how much truth there is in some of their reactionary stories.

I am not gullible enough to worry about 'racial stories' just because of racial stereotypes. I have worked with people from many ethnic backgrounds in the past and generally speaking I either like people or I don't and the deciding factor has nothing to do with where they come from.

I am concerned about the continued influx of immigrants into the UK which I consider to be vastly overpopulated (esp in the South) and the effect it will have on MY future (specifically to do with the NHS and pensions).

Neither do I like the way this country is heading into the arms of the Nanny State where common sense is legislated out of the populace. Of course, I put this down to aliens, as opposed to human aliens, if you see what I mean.

I do see an element of truth in many of their story lines but I would, from choice, purchase the Torygraph.
