First mis-spelling comedy of 2007

Right, let's get straight to work on completely disregarding those New Year Resolutions with the most frivolous article we can find... this is taken from the Inquirer website for 19 December so it's technically 2006 comedy, but I only noticed it today when browsing Linux news on www.linux.org:

"UK Government criticised for stifling open sauce in schools"


The article then goes on to explain how the DfES is monitoring usage of tomato ketchup and other condiments in school canteens and threatening to fine schools who exceed sensible daily limits per pupil. Also kids are being issued with ASBOs for failing to put the lid back on the sauce bottles after use.

It's a crazy world out there.

I would hav assumed this article to be a spoof,given a government mired in two bloody civil wars and whose educational standards are actually lower than North Korea! Nevertheless, a depressing reflection of the state we're in is that its almost certainly true.....Roll on the nationalist revolution.....
