Clothes line George at Asda canvassed website Mumsnet over a slogan on the top reading 'gorgeous is an understatement'.

George, which is signed up to Mumsnet's Let Girls Be Girls campaign, is believed to be the first to let mums vote on products.'

Let's hope they listen to all our other suggestions and ideas that were in the thread.
