The Battle of Rutland: Why the council refuses to sign up to the FSA food hygiene rating scheme
Oakham, the largest town in England’s smallest county, does not seem a rebellious place. Bunting flutters above its pretty high street where Leeson Family Butchers is promoting its prize-winning Stilton sausage.
But appearances can be deceptive. In one respect, Rutland is a maverick: it is the only local authority in England that has not signed up to the Food Standards Agency’s hygiene rating scheme, more commonly known as “scores on the doors”.

Oakham in the Independent
Richard Jinman interviews Tory Deputy Leader of Rutland County Council
then pops up the road to interview carefully selected fellow Former
Tory Councillor Peter Jones and his stepson Tom not a bad choice really
when you consider the families ownership of a couple of food establishments
in the area.
Personally I agree with Terry King on this one. A recent visit to Leicester
and I saw these window stickers of some pretty grim looking food outlets.
All we need is good inspections it does happen here in Oakham not
long ago enforcement was taken to get a take away to clean up.
