Let's wax lyrical over Greggs: it's on a roll

The news that the Greggs sausage roll is to be immortalised in the “culture capital” section of Madame Tussauds, where it will sit on a “regal” blue velvet cushion in the company of Princess Diana and Stormzy, has been greeted with a certain amount of amusement by the media ~ I must admit to finding it quite funny myself.
