Stage one of my cleansing mission is complete!
I have removed the treacherous scum with my initial attack, and now I bring out the heavy guns for the final stages of my fight!
So I ask once again:
BLEACH OR DETTOL?!?

before my housemate unplugged the router
This reminds me of when we had a blocked sink last term. I was dispat6ched to the spar 3 doors down to find suitable chemical weapons
Me: Do you have anything for unblocking sinks?
SparMan: Like Mr Muscle?
Me: Yes
SparMan: No, but we do have bleach
Me: Oh, I was looking for something a bit more powerful, and harmful to aquatic life
SparMan: Right...

Please note: Whilst boiling oil WILL unblock your pipes, if they are made of plastic, it will also MELT your pipes. Please use with caution or as a last resort

My pipes ARE plastic, and seeing as the U-bend was blocked because housemate had poured solid fat down there, boiling oil was counter-intuitive. Though I guess it would have worked.
Mr Muscle's finest chemical cocktail didn't work, so in the end we immersed the U-bend in a saucepan of hot water, which did the trick
