To think businesses have to pay for material returned to them?

Leaflet from UKIP through the door with Nutty Nige's buffoonish face all over it. I was about to chuck it in the re-cycling when I noticed that it had a return address on it.

I was wondering if I sent the leaflet back with 'return to sender', complete with some graffiti to UKIP HQ would it cost them anything? It would be petty, but I would like to think it cost them some money and inconvenienced them in some way. Am I right in thinking it costs businesses to receive mail marked 'Return to Sender'?

An an alternative, we also have a few bathroom tile samples lying about. They are quite heavy, so if I chucked a few of them and the leaflet in a jiffy bag without a stamp, would that cost UKIP a few quid?

Any ideas of how to adorn Farage's idiot face would be gratefully received. On the front cover I have drawn a spunking cock and balls forehead, but the other picture remains as yet unadorned.

If you really want to claim the moral high ground, it would help if you laid off the childish ad hominem attacks. Whilst I've vigorously disagreed with what you've written I haven't been personally insulting.

Trumpeted my sex? - By which you mean I've mentioned I'm male (where relevent) and then not that often. What you are writing is coming across as quite unpleasant now.

Ooh, I wish I'd seen you trumpet your sex ComposHat.

This is a difference between rubbishing someone's argument which is fine, I you should expect that on AIBU and is the whole point of the board. a You are quite welcome to disagree with what I'm doing and why I'm doing it, but you cross a boundary when you start making (uncalled for and unprovoked) personal attacks.

Yet you persist making wildly inaccurate assumptions about you've never met. Good luck finding those retweeted 'cleb texts, you'll be a long time looking as I don't tweet in a personal capacity.

I trumpeted my sex once.

I was asked to leave that particular branch of Tesco shortly after.

A UKIP leaflet just came through the door. With the rest of my post. I hope Royal Mail's charging them plenty for this!

And that's why I got sacked from the Grimethorpe Colliery band.

"The UK has a proud tradition of liberty and freedom. If we leave the EU, we can also withdraw from the European Court of Human Rights".

Given sentence 1, what's so bad about the European Court of Human Rights? Confused

Is this about Abu Hamza again? 'cos I don't want to get rid of legal and philosophical progress for one man.
