With all that is going on at the moment, one MP has come up with a suggestion to adopt the hedgehog as a national symbol. Surely it would be more appropriate to have it represent Westminster. A small insignificant creature that rarely see the light, spends half it's life asleep and is surrounded by pricks. For me there is one major difference, I like hedgehogs  |

Instead of rolling them in muddy clay and baking; it is much easier to pop them in the old Habitat 'Chicken Brick'. Cooks well and retains all the succulent juices. Peeling them is a little harder, the prickly skin does come off easier when stuck to baked clay.
ps please ensure that they are deceased before cooking ......... cruel if not checked for demise.

I once did catch, kill and cook a hedgehog. On an outdoor survival course when in the scouts in the 1960's. Cooked in wet soil which pulled the skin off when hoggie was cooked!

Quick Stir Fry is all that Members of Parliament require, they all are Half Baked to start with.

Just to prove it ....... today a news item broadcast by the BBC.
The "great British hedgehog" should become a national symbol of the UK, an MP has suggested.
Oliver Colvile, Conservative MP for Plymouth Sutton and Devonport, said numbers of the prickly creatures had fallen by a third in the last decade.
Mr Stewart responded in the House of Commons: "Do we want to have as our national symbol an animal that when confronted with danger rolls over into a little ball and puts its spikes up?
"Do we want to have as our national symbol an animal that sleeps for six months of the year, or would we rather return to the animal that is already our national symbol, the lion?"
I rest my case MPs are very Pillockish
