Not only has the Council agreed to let her post pictures, the furor has resulted in her raising over £45,000 for her school dinner charity.
I am actually beginning to wonder if the whole thing was a stunt.
But I think I’ll keep the faith and just assume the council is staffed by people as moronic as they appeared.
If you haven’t been paying attention, you might have missed this:
Which is the blog a primary school girl in Scotland. She blogs about her school dinners and, really, how crap they are.
Well, blogged would be better, as her local council and school have shut her down. Or, at least, told her she can’t take pictures of the food any more and her and her dad have taken that as an order to not do it at all any more.
She’s also started a drive, through her blog, to raise money for schools in developing countries to be able to supply hot lunches to their students.
Why?
Because she has gotten over 2 million hits in 2 months and instead of taking the criticism on board and improving, they got scared and ran.
Because it’s easier to tell the girl to sit down and shut than it is to encourage her to stand up and shout.
And because grown ups think they know best.
Many of her blog followers, from all over the world, are writing to the council registering complaints.
And I’m going to be one of them.
