In this government, we have a Cabinet minister well skilled in dealing with the vexed question as to whether another Scottish export represents 'a substantial meal'.
Aberdonian Mr Gove is 'rightminded' in trying to banish this disgusting Scottish product from our pubs.
The Dame was asked the other day why Mr Gove wanted us all to be locked up at home for the long duration.
She was able to answer that if you come from Mr Gove's hometown, Aberdeen, indoors is the best place to be.
We need a 'Scotch Egg Patrol' led by Mr Gove ready to raid any pub selling one of these horror balls.
'Scotching' is a term for enveloping an item in minced meat. 'Scotch(ed)" eggs are held to have been introduced in the 1730s by Fortnum & Mason - the corner shop to the grandest of Dames. These 'horror balls' are not the unpalatable Scottish export you presume, whereas many might argue that Michael Gove increasingly is.
