UK: New Farming Minister Is A Veggie
Following the resignation of Jane Kennedy, the newly appointed food & farming minister, Jim Fitzpatrick, has been "outed" as a vegetarian.
You couldn't make it up could you? Kennedy's constituency of Wavertree in Liverpool is not exactly renowned for it's agricultural links, being more commonly associated with burnt out Ford Cortina's.
So, in an effort to reassure the nation's farmers that he really is in touch with their needs, Gordon McBroon has appointed a vegetarian MP for Poplar and Canning Town to fight their corner.
On his website, www.jimfitzpatrickmp.co.uk, the new minister for food, farming and environment lists amongst his interests and hobbies "fire" and "West Ham United" I kid you not.
He also states: "I am here to promote the East End of London". I suggest that you do that by buring down Upton Park next time the Hammers are at home Fitz, thereby fulfilling three fantasies all at the same time.
Hilary Benn Secretary of State for the Environment, Food & Rural Affairs, intriguingly, is also a raging carrot-munching "nut-cutlet" who likes nothing better than to curl up in front of a roaring log fire with a cucumber, a jar of organic honey and a copy of the Lentil Lovers Guide. Allegedly.
What next I ask myself? Dale Winton & Graham Norton in charge of defence?
