Fruity language

Where in the UK can you use fruity language and demonstrate a bad attitude without losing your job? Perhaps the two qualities are required and are tested for at job interviews? Who'll spill the beans? Andrew Gilligan, a journalist of much renown for his almost solitary stand against Government lies, has been subjected to some outrageous behaviour whilst trying to catch a train. At least the assault was only to his ears and sensibility. La Lobster has experienced far worse, from a certain poet laureate no less. La Lobster remembers only too clearly how the aggressive poet pushed her aside, using elbows and bag to board a train. The memory has never faded.
