But wouldn’t they need a food hygiene certificate to serve a Scotch egg, which is food

If it's hot and runny with a side salad it's a meal. If it's cold and hard out of a packet than it's a snack.

Pasty n chips is OK but not a pasty on it's own
I see they have now decided to award pubs £1k to help them out

The best pasties are the ones hand made in Cornwall eaten out of a paper bag while you're stood in a doorway avoiding the rain in Newquay.
