An energy saving bulb has gone - evacuate the room now (says govt!)
An energy saving bulb has gone - evacuate the room now!

Energy-saving light bulbs are so dangerous that everyone must leave the room for at least 15 minutes if one falls to the floor and breaks, a Government department warned yesterday.

The startling alert came as health experts also warned that toxic mercury inside the bulbs can aggravate a range of problems including migraines and dizziness.

And a leading dermatologist said tens of thousands of people with skin complaints will find it hard to tolerate being near the bulbs as they cause conditions such as eczema to flare up.

The Department for Environment warned shards of glass from broken bulbs should not be vacuumed up but instead swept away by someone wearing rubber gloves to protect them from the bulb's mercury content.

And to top it:

They have given paper boxes to supermarkets where burnt out bulbs should be retourned because of the mercury.

Guess what people do ?

Throw them in with a satisfying *crash*

Those poor cashiers just close by ...

And none of these pathetic people deserves better. They won't sue, they won't organize and fight...it's the British way to take it up the ass. No other population are bigger pussies, it's blatant, except maybe the states in some cases (but hey, the police in Britian don't need to beat up the population, everyone is pathetic and compliant already)
