Try typing: "French military victories" into Google, then select I'm feeling lucky.

Not sure if this is a definitive answer, Martin:

• In Google, go into Advanced Search
• Under ‘Exact Phrase’ enter F*ckwit (replacing * with ‘u’)
• Under ‘Domain’, tell Google to only return results from the site www.number-10.gov.uk
• Under ‘Occurrences’ select ‘anywhere in the page’
• Do a search (nothing found)
• Repeat search cycling through the various options of ‘Occurrences’
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  The only time anything is found is when you select ‘Occurrences of ‘anywhere in the page’ or ‘links to the page’.

This still seems to suggest that the page does contain the term ‘f*ckwit’ somewhere. So repeat search using ‘Occurrences’ ‘anywhere in the page’ but select the ‘cached’ result.

On the ‘cached’ page it says that the term ‘f*ckwit’ is only contained in links to the page.


You can also verify that the terms does not appear on the page by selecting ‘view source’ when viewing the page and searching for ‘f*ckwit’. The terms is not found.


I think it proves that the term ‘f*uckwit’ has been applied more often to John Prescott than anyone else on the Internet!

A friend gave me an old phone with someone of that name still in the memory; well I never would have guessed.

I expect you all know (before I joined here) that in the preamble to the Gulf War, a Google search for Weapons of Mass Destruction came up with an amusing result; it's still about but no longer at the top.

I've been using forums for years. When I used to drink alcohol, I always made it a rule for myself never to post a message after a few drinks.

Google bombing is quite a well known thing on the internet. The link posted by newfoundglory http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_bomb explains exactly how this works.
