From the BBC:Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has said he fears spending cuts could hit the Ministry of Food which he set up in Rotherham to encourage healthy eating.Let us hope that his fears are justified.
At this point, you probably expect me to demand that Mr Oliver's toy ministry be abolished. I am not. I am calling for this fatuous exercise in converting one man's opinion into government busybodyism to be not only abolished, but that Mr Oliver personally repay out of his own pocket the taxpayers' money wasted on it–preferably by making the little commissar work in a chip shop.
Hell, they should fry the chips in tallow.
