Coffee Shots: Nick Clegg takes a cooking lesson

Miriam Clegg said in a recent interview that she had banned her husband Nick Clegg from the kitchen on ‘health and safety grounds’.

But happily, the leader of the Liberal Democrats can now have at least one dish to his name after spending a day making Cornish pasties as part of the St Piran’s Day festivities with pupils at the St Merryn school in Cornwall.

The new skill may come in useful in May should Clegg have to consider a new career path after the general election.
