Greatest inventions in the UK
Instead of television or jet engine, toilet paper, Custard cream cake and smiley potato cake became the excellent 'candidate' for the list of Britain's greatest inventions.
Recently all members of the Parliament of England participated in the campaign to nominate the most important invention in British history, serving the upcoming online exhibition. It is surprising that the nomination list is not television, jet engine or light bulb which is normally the default of revolutionary inventions; which includes toilet paper, fish hand, Custard cream cake and smiley potato cake.
Custard cream cake, smiley potato pancakes, fish fingers and SCA toilet paper are among the greatest inventions in the UK.
This campaign to nominate and exhibit Britain's most important inventions is to commend the great inventions of Britain and mark the coronation of Queen Diamond Jubilee next year. The campaign is proposed by British Cabinet Business Secretary, Vince Cable. " We export these goods to every corner of the world, " Cable said.
Senator Chris White, chairman of the campaign, said: ' I hope this legendary British exhibition will be the best. '
Each of the 40 MPs nominated the most typical invention model of the area they represented. Politicians have named very popular units, rather than the technical inventions of history.
Senator Gavin Williamson from South Staffordshire, who nominated smiley potato cake Mc Cain Smiley Potato Faces, said: ' Smiley Potato is probably not the most sophisticated of all food and drink but it is a great idea to be great. '.
