'Our England' has far more men than women. Who knew??

Disclaimer: I don't buy or read this paper, we got a free promo copy through the door. On the front cover is a collage of famous figures with 'this is our England' stamped proudly under it.

Still waiting for my free loo paper copy.

I shan't bother to read it, but will be sending it back to their freepost address, the necky funkers.

I got one and it hasn't even got a useful world cup groups chart in it.

God it's awful, what's the point of it?

What is it for? I understand there's some sort of sporting fixture in South America? Confused

We had one, I was extremely Hmm and Confused

I live in a very naice, pearl-clutching type area, definitely not the area where anyone takes The Sun all torygraph round here.

I got my free copy today and has a very tedious essay written by James Corden about The World Cup.

I opened the cover, saw Kelly Brooke crouched down and closed it again Hmm

I'm posting it back tomorrow, stamp free. Fuckers.

I'm in NI so not going to get one thank fuck. I hope this shitty publicity stunt backfires bigtime and tonnes of people send this evil rag back to sender.

Page three of this edition still irritated me with Kelly Beooke with her bum out (iirc) and a big label saying she's England's rose no 1.

I meant to take a closer look at what it said about the men on the page but my DH destroyed the whole thing in a fury whilst my attention was elsewhere.

I haven't looked at ours. But I had to open the door for the postman to give me a parcel and he was most unimpressed at having to deliver them all.

We got our free copy today. Kelly Brook in her knickers. Apparently she's the number 1 English rose because she is sexy and knows it but portrays innocence. What does that imply fgs. That's not the exact wording but you get the idea. Wankers.

I know I shouldn't but I loathe Kelly B - she is so complicit in it all

Who is she?

Seriously, what's she famous for?

Report
hmc · 12/06/2014 22:31

Pouting and looking suggestive

LOL but there must be a reason (other) people have heard of her?

She used to present a breakfast show on ch4 but was sacked for being useless IIRC. Likewise with Britain's Got Talent.

I've given mine to a neighbour to shred for hamster cage litter. Seems a good use for it.

I have sent back to the freepost address AND complained to the ASA - this is an advert for The Sun with an objectifying sexualised image on page 3. Posted through my door with no regard as to whether children will open it up and see it.

Very interested to see what the ASA say!

Ours has been filed in the bin.. Not before I snaffled the free coke zero voucher inside though.
Useless load of twaddle and ignorance.

I didn't get one which annoyed me as I wanted to post it back to them 'return to sender'.
