Time, Gentlemen, Please!

An MP has apologised for being "too drunk to vote".

How amazing. Given what comes vomiting out of Westminster, I thought that being soused to the gills was a requirement for voting.

Update:It's the only way to explain how this sort of drivel get's a look in.

    As an American, my hope is that imposing a three-drink minimum on Congress would be the best way to stop them befouling the world. The session would start about 5:00 pm, but no legislative business could happen until after 1:00 am.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
