THIS IS NOT A APRIL FOOL I WISH IT WAS!
This is the what makes the British House of Commons so much superior to our 
trivia issues obsessed Scottish Parliament

An Early Day Motion supported by 6 MP's reprinted below

963 Hot Cross Buns                               26:03:3

Andrew Rosindell
Miss Ann Widdecombe
Mr Bill Wiggin
Mrs Marion Roe
Sir Nicholas Winterton
Mr Nicholas Soames

That the House is appalled at the decision by somal local authorities in the 
United Kingdom to ban Hot Croos Buns from Schools; believes the hot cross buns 
to be a splendid Easter Tradition that represents the Christian heritage of 
Britain; and encourages all schools in the United Kingdom to ignore such 
politically correct advice from local authorities and continue to serve hot 
cross buns.

  As a amendment to Andrew Rosindell's proposed Motion (Hot Cross Buns):
Angela Watkinson
Mr Desmond Swayne
Mr Mark Hoban
Mr David Ruffley
Mr Peter Luff

    Line 3, after 'Britain , insert 'notes that the Jewish, Muslim and Hindu 
communities are unlikely to appreciate such tokenism:'.          27:3:03

Personally i think the MP's who considered this nonsense worthy enough to add an 
amendment to it are the ones who need to get a life!. We all knew hopefully
 that Ann Widdecombe doesn't live in the same reality as the rest of us.  The 
House of Commons Early day motions website is at 
http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm/cmedm/30331e01.pdf if you want to 
see how our mps are wasting their time on our behalf.
