Lightly grease a baking sheet.

Mix together the flour and baking powder, add the margarine and rub it in

Add the dates, ginger and sugar, mix well and make a well in the centre.

Add the milk and stir in with a fork to form a fairly soft dough. Turn on
to a lightly floured surface and knead very lightly.

Roll out to about 2cm ( 3/4 inch) thick and cut out rounds with a 5cm
(2-inch) cutter.

Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the oven for
10-12 minutes or until risen and firm.
