Ärende: Fast food ban
=====================
Fast food to be banned in cars in Britain....

This just in:

The Home Office is considering introducing new legislation to ban the
consumption of Ginsters pasties in moving vehicles, following the
results of an inquiry into a major traffic accident on the M6 near
Carlisle. The inquiry found that a lorry had leapt the central
reservation of the M6, when the driver attempted to unseal a Ginsters
pasty. Although no lives were lost, several sheep died in the accident
triggering an outcry from animal rights organisations.

A spokeman from the Home Office said, "Although the Police could already
charge the driver with several offences, they feel it would be easier if
the specific offense of driving with a Ginsters pasty in one hand was
introduced. It is thought that this might influence other drivers to
desist from this appalling activity, and would also enable the Police to
apply the law without having to think too hard."

A spokesman from The Royal Society of Overactive Busybodies welcomed the
move "Ginsters have become a real menace, only the other day we received
a report of a man attempting to eat a Ham and Mozzarella Bake while
negiotiating the M25. However, we should investigate the underlying
problems, and we feel the government is being soft on the pastry
industry who peddle their evil product in garages and service stations
throughout the country. An outright ban on Ginsters consumption and sale
within 2 miles of a road will suffice."

John Prescott is suspected to dissent on Cabinet on this issue. When
questioned as he was leaving work in his jag he replied "mughh,
they''lll mughhh have to pry my Melton Mowbray from my dead hand. Want a
bite?"
