I think it goes without saying that 1) this is sexist and 2) people don't go to restaurants for their *daily* calories. We're not all la-de-dah Lords eating out every sodding evening.

I live in Wales and today received my Join Us letter from Reform UK, complete with SAE which I posted back to them, immediately, empty. If every other person in Wales did this, Reform would spend over £1.5 million on postage. Not sorry. Join me Cymru.
