Customer: This loo has never been right since you put it in.
Plumber: Whats wrong with it?
Customer: It doesn't flush properly.
Plumber: Let me try it.
Customer: The water comes out but it doesn't always flush away.
Plumber: It has a six-litre flush to save water. They are all like that now.It is the law. If it delivers six-litres that is all I can do.
Customer: What is the point of that? I end up flushing it twice so it doesn't save a thing.
Plumber: I agree but what can I do?
Customer: Well surely you can make some representations to the people who make the law.
Plumber: Yeah, like they are going to listen to me. They don't ask us about anything. Do you think I should write to the Prime Minister?
Customer: I bet the loo in Downing Street flushes perfectly well.
Plumber: And Buckingham Palace.
Customer: Exactly. Meanwhile the average person has to put up with this rubbish.
Plumber: Not only you. I've got one, and half the country will have one sooner or later.
Customer: That's outrageous. Who designs these things? There must be some standards.
Plumber: Oh yes. Scientists spent years flushing little putty and sawdust sausages around glass U- bends so they could see what they did with different quantities of water. There was a British standard but now we have a Euro loo based on the average. That includes your Italian and your Dutch, not to mention your Croatian.
Customer: Brussels again, I knew it.
Plumber: Yeah it's nothing to do with us plumbers at all. We are just innocent victims.
Customer: Well thanks for looking.
Plumber: That'll be 46 quid please. Plus the dreaded VAT. A European tax if I'm not mistaken.

Really- what the hell is this?
I mean-it didn't actually happen, it's not a joke, it's not funny it is just a bizarrely insane way of saying "these new toilet rules arent very good are they?".
If you want your dinner- do you say to your wife: "a roofing contrator says to his wife "I'm really hungry" so his wife replies "shall I put dinner on?" to which he replies "Yes please" wink wink

Are you saying then, that what the OP really means is he needs a dump. One so big it won't flush away without the aid of a coathangers assistance?I mean-it didn't actually happen, it's not a joke, it's not funny it is just a bizarrely insane way of saying "these new toilet rules arent very good are they?".

Jesus. WHat the hell is that?I know what the PH anti-flooding device is. Its a prgramme which prevents people making multiple posts in quick succession.
Im just not sure why you are pretending that its something a plumber installed as though a webpage contains water and might leak. Because I know that you know that is incorrect. Thus back to my question
