The British public is as staggeringly ignorant of basic anatomy as it was 40 years ago, according to a study published today by King's College London.
When asked to point to their arse and elbow, most of the respondents pointed to Gordon Brown in both cases.
"This shows a very worrying lack of biological awareness," said lead researcher Dr Strangelove. "While Mr Brown may well be an enormous arse, he is not the public's arse as they never voted him in. And he will not get the elbow until the last possible moment."
The public also tended to mix up their heads and their hearts, he added.
"People's heads told them that the Tories are as bad as Labour when it comes to thieving from the public purse, doing favours for their rich business friends and ignoring the plight of ordinary people in the street," he explained. "But their hearts got in the way and told them to vote Tory anyway, just to annoy Mr Brown."
However, the public were not entirely ignorant of their body parts, as both men and women demonstrated by indicating the prime minister once more when asked to point to their genitals.
