toys and insurance

So McDonald's have made a 'McDonald's kitchen style' toy, not very much different from the toy kitchens you can buy for kids already that lots of kids love to play with.
But as soon as you see this you know that some so called 'experts' somewhere are going to loose the plot and go ape shit over it and cry bloody murder..... And they did.
They said the company was trying to get into the minds of children, well I'm pretty sure they are already there anyway, plus they aren't going to be influenced into eating unhealthily as its the parents that control the diet!!
These people need to learn no one cares about their 'expert' opinions. Where do they think it will end? if they had their way EVERYTHING that has anything 'bad' would be banned.



Now i don't normally like the EU they have never done anything good and think they can come and tell my country what to do, well yesterday they did the first and probably the only good thing they will ever do that i don't mind them doing.
They made it law that it is sexual discrimination for women to have lower insurance on anything. The main one being car insurance. From now on women must pay the same as men and only other factors can play a part in the premium charged.
As a male who has insurance this clearly pleases me. But this has another point, feminists and women's groups always bang on about equal rights and fair rights but this is only if it is good for them. Now they are all screaming saying that it is unfair as they are apparently 'better' drivers. Which of course stinks of hypocrisy.
Strangely enough tho I'm not sure which side many of the media are taking in this, they actually for once seem to be staying neutral and just stating the facts!! Two firsts at the same time, that's not something you see everyday.
