Try something different today... on a shoestring?

Apparently the Government is going to provide £2m of funding to set up a "network of regional training schools for school cooks" to teach them how to cook. Assuming that the "regional" aspect relates to the regions defined in the current assemblies, and assuming that London is not included, that's actually £250,000 each.

Something rell's me that setting up a functioning training school for £250,000 is not very likely. I doubt it will even cover the cost of kitchen materials required. Which makes me wonder the money is actually more about gesture politics to appease the fat-tongued one.
