Decline of the British Empire

Funny post at Catallaxy about the perils of teacakes and the British VAT (BTW am I the only one who finds it mildly ironic that Catallaxy is one of the few sites where you have to register before you can comment? I refuse to have my liberty restricted in this abominable fashion).

Anyway skepticlawyer has a picture of said Marks & Spencer teacake. I looked at it and thought “That’s not a teacake”. However, upon doing independent research, I confirmed that Marks & Spencer do, in fact, call this marshmallow biscuit a teacake.

For the information of Marks & Sparks, THIS is a teacake.

No wonder the Brits have all these problems with Islamofascists when they no longer even know what a teacake is. I think I’ll go and throw my M & S shirts in the rubbish bin. The buttons keep falling off anyway.
