So to Scotch eggs ....
Now myself I would have thought it obvious that a scotch egg isn't a substantial meal ...unless maybe you're a 4-year-old. It seemed pretty common sense to me, but not apparently to the Tories.
In another attempt to absolutely confuse, publicans, clubs who are all so desperately trying to survive, what should have been so simply clear, it's now not clear. So is a scotch egg a substantial meal or not.
1st we had George Eustice, the environment, food and rural affairs secretary, say that the eggs “probably would count” as a meal if there was table service.
Then Gove told LBC two scotch eggs would be 'a starter', 24 hours after Environment Secretary George Eustice said one is a substantial meal.
Then Gove reiterated his stance on LBC in a second interview on Good Morning Britain - before backtracking and then telling ITV News: 'A scotch egg is a substantial meal.'
So far nobody in government can point to anything in the Licensing Act or any other legislation, either during Covid or pre-pandemic, which defines what exactly is substantial or not.
So baring in mind publicans can be fined for not following the rules that are now totally vague, yet again, due to comments made by this stupid shower of twats.
You had one job to guide the nation with 'Clarity' and right from the start you have failed on so many levels.
Yes the job was tough but you've made it 1,000 times harder with your lies, misinformation and vague misleading information. That side of it should have been easy but no not for this shower of absolute idiots. Everything done to make themselves look good and line the pockets of them and their friends.
Wankers
