Sorry you cant do this 2.5mm is limited to a 16a mcb !

Wire the appliances on the ring using 20A dp switches above each appliance
with a socket below, the Hood should be on a switched fused spur (3Amp fuse)
and the cooker in 6mm with a 45A DP switch within 2mtrs of Hob

I think if you re-read the OP you'll find it doesn't mention a cooker
at all. It mentions a hob, presumably gas, which has a mains ignition
circuit so a 3amp fused plug or spur is adequate.
