Have the wheels finally come off your clown car?

not sure as i didnt post em

Yes you can bet they spend more time in the bars than on the house floor.

and it's probably where important decisions are made.

The Brits are drunks. Nothing new here. Ask any RyanAir cabin crew on how things go in all those flights going back to England. Some airlines or hotels in Spain and the Balearic islands are even considering banning the Brits to board. I would also with regret, suggest to add my german counterparts to also be on the ban list...as many tend to highly misbehave when abroad. Must admit.

MPs have 23 points of sale for meals and snacks, including eight bars, at Westminster; peers have several of their own. But they comprise barely 1,400 of the 13,000 passholders (researchers, staff, journalists, contractors) who can eat and drink in all but the most exclusive ones such as the Commons Smoking Room.

So only about 10% of the people in the parliament buildings/bars are actually MP's.

The Institute of Alcohol Studies (another Jobsworth organization) should visit Pattaya?

nearly 10 per cent of respondents described a negative experience due to someone else’s drinking at work. The most common were unwanted sexual attention and harassment, insults or humiliation.

"Sir if you were my husband I would put poison in your tea. Madam If I were married to you I would drink it"

Ad hominem is grist for the mill in parliament just as it is on this forum?
