Copy & Paste plain text?

It's really annoying sometimes when I can't copy just plain text from firefox to Pages. It always comes with its own font and size. How could I just copy plain text?

Have you tried to use "⌥⌂⌘V"?

I've added via
+System Preferences -> Hardware -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts for other Applications+
a new Application, Pages. Via "Menu" I've set up a new Shortcut. In this case I used "⌘V" and have overwritten the default one. Now ⌥⌂⌘V is ⌘V for me. - And that is what Strato222 want to do: He/She want to use ⌘V and paste the text as plain text.

This works wonderful on Snow Leopard.
