Plebgate.

For those of you who aren't aware of this, a Tory cabinet minister, Andrew Mitchell wasn't allowed out of his usual gate at Downing Street. This prompted him to supposedly call the police officers on the gate, amongst other things, plebs. The Sun newspaper, which is a terrible excuse for a newspaper, printed the accounts of one of the police officers in which it was said that Mitchell used the word pleb. Mitchell has always denied using this word and is now suing The Sun.

Get a grip.

First of all, get over it, The Sun newspaper has done far worse things.

Secondly, since when did pleb become the ultimate insult that should not be uttered by any human tongue. I'm pretty sure there are worse insults than pleb and I'm certain that police officers get called a lot worse.

Mitchell, grow up and next time you insult someone, don't do it in such a poor manner.
