Asleep

[jazzy_dave]

This is what Tory MP's get up to whilst in the House of Commons. Bloody typical.



Perhaps there has been too many hustings (debates or speeches, during an election campaign where one or more of the representative candidates are present. ). LOL!!

In fairness, I should point out (even though the guy is a Tory) that the Beeb have had to apologise over this image. He's partially deaf, does this to concentrate and listen to the Speaker.

I'm not saying no-one ever goes to sleep in the Chamber; but maybe not this one.

Well i knew that but i was playing devil's advocate.

Actually Ken Clarke used to 'concentrate' as well, on the front benches (only he was much more suspect).

What is 'better': to sleep without making any noise or to fight as they often do in Ukraine Parliament? (of course, I'm joking) :))

Haha, we had a politician who used to do that, too :P

In all fairness to them, our politicians spend long days in these seats where the debate can go far into the night. They try to stay awake so that they can put their two cent's worth in and have a vote at the end of the day to pass or block legislation, as they think fit and hopefully what their constituents think, but this is a pretty impossible feat.
