英国9岁小女孩吐槽学校午餐走红

Since Martha Payne’s fight against a council ban on her publishing photographs of her school dinners became an internet sensation, she has been inundated with promises of book, TV and movie deals.

But it has emerged the nine-year-old accepted only one offer after her successful battle against censorship became an international cause celebre on Friday.

The selfless Scottish schoolgirl has now agreed to team up with Nick Nairn, the celebrity chef, to help Argyll and Bute Council provide more nutritious meals for her and her classmates.

The move emerged as Roddy McCuish, the SNP-run local authority’s leader, admitted the council had been wrong and offered to apologise to Martha when they meet later this week.

He said the council’s communications department is to be overhauled after a public relations disaster that saw Martha’s case become the world’s third most talked about subject on the social networking site Twitter.

David Payne, her father, yesterday said his daughter remains unfazed by the global attention, which drew more than five million people to her blog, NeverSeconds, where she posts photographs of her school dinners and rates them out of ten.

“Since this started, we’ve had offers to appear on television shows from all around the world – daytime TV from Japan and from America. We’ve had Hollywood agents talking about a book and TV and maybe a film,” the smallholder said.
