With all the Falklands discourse this week now is probably good time to confess I once deliberately overcharged someone at work because they were Argentinian

@donmcgowan @gm2112rush You're a pussy and you hate Britain.

@gm2112rush Yep. Exactly.

Should MPs be allowed to drink on the job? Hannah Spencer thinks not. Many, predominately male, MPs [and Andrew Neil] fiercely disagree. Spoiler alert: no, of course, MPs should not be allowed to drink at work. Yes, there's history and yes, there's precedent, sitting alongside nine subsidised bars on the Parliamentary estate, but really, no one should be drinking at work. Let alone those who we've elected to be our representatives in the House of Commons and to bring new laws into place on our behalf. Back in the olden days, when I ran bars in London, we'd often be offered drinks from generous customers. It was far more preferable for a punter to say “get one for yourself” than to offer a cash tip. And that was cool. I wouldn't let my team drink behind the bar though. They could bank their drinks, and we'd have some after the doors closed, but not on shift — even on a quiet night. Booze dulls your senses, it hampers your judgement and can lead to mistakes. When you're behind a very busy bar with rows of people trying to grab your attention, it's easy to get your orders wrong and key in the wrong things on the till, leading to cash or stock shortages. But more importantly, when you're working in that environment, you have to be constantly on alert for danger. Spiking. Attacks. Thefts. Fights. When you've had a drink or two, it lowers your alertness and things get missed. I get that Parliament isn't exactly the same hustle as Belushis Camden on a Saturday night, but the same principles apply. Things are missed. Standards are lowered. Before my move to the nightlife world of London, I was in IT, specifically, the IT Manager for an executive search company in London Bridge. We used to go to the pub at lunchtime on a Friday [sometimes a Monday]. We did that because we knew on a Friday afternoon, it didn't matter that our productivity dropped off a cliff; it was a coast to the weekend and, for most, a return to the pub. It was a good time. Fun and frivolity on a Friday. But very little got done because we couldn't be bothered after a couple of pints. Work became the secondary consideration. And this is where we find our MPs. They may claim that a couple of glasses of wine or two pints at lunch, doesn't affect them, but it does. Of course it does. Shouldn't we expect those officials that we elected to represent us, to be able to navigate a 'long day' without getting on the booze? I'd say it should be mandatory. MPs don't attend Parliament every day, some do weeks at a time without showing up to their jobs Farage . Even if a dedicated MP turned up for their four-day working week, for which they receive almost £100,000, I fully believe that they should be able to navigate that time without drinking on the job. Oh, and the Green Party drugs policy is a total red herring. A weak distraction from a serious issue. Welcome to a new week of nonsense in politics. Happy Monday. 😊

@donmcgowan Fucking commie cunt.

@timdavies_uk It's just women. They can't help themselves. Natural-born narcissists. "How can I make this about me" syndrome.

Basically what happened to BBC reporters, they thought they were more important than the story and started pointing the camera at themselves.

@lesfreakout @PhilipProudfoot @BuckCllr Your mother.

@anglocolonel @PhilipProudfoot @BuckCllr What do you do for a living?

Green Party: we will re-nationalise water, tax wealth, and lead a green Industrial Revolution. Labour Party: we will defend to the death MPs right to get pissed at work on the taxpayers expense.

@lesfreakout @PhilipProudfoot @BuckCllr They're all a bunch of queers who are scared of a beer. Do I need to spell it out?

@anglocolonel @PhilipProudfoot @BuckCllr What?

@JoelWebbon Thank you, Joel.

That’s not the issue. The real tragedy is that the U.K. Is not safe for the British (and unlike you, they have no where else to go). Let that sink in… and get over yourself.

@tjenthusiast @MillennialWoes He piped Piper.

@MillennialWoes It’s crazy that he was married to Billie Piper tbh

Dear God...

@jmilprint @WONGthink She's not. Being completely arseholed, fair enough. But having a drink or two? No issue. It's quintessentially British.

@WONGthink At the pub, not at your fucking work!!! The greens are peado, terrorist loving pieces of shit who want to legalise drugs but she is right on this.

It's quintessentially British to discuss politics over a drink, actually. The absence of self-awareness in Captain Legalise Heroin here, who is trying to stigmatise alcohol for political points, is astounding.

@HeracleanVision Both.

I wonder if she's actually just an insufferable puritan square, or if this is a not-so-subtle attempt to pander to her Muslim voters.

@RespectIsVital That needs to change. Free booze for all.

Yea, but I've seem how many MPs are in the taxpayer subsided bars with alcoholic drinks between votes. A normal British worker can't be under the influence while working.

@ZoeJardiniere @TypeForVictory I've heard you are too.

@TypeForVictory Interesting - I don’t know how it all works tbh, but I have heard the booze is mad cheap 🤷‍♀️

Look, even if there is a case, a REAL case, for allowing MPs to drink in their work breaks before returning to vote, it is utterly indefensible that they drink at a rate subsidised by you & me. All the fancy food is one thing, but tax payer funded booze is just a joke.

@freemonotheist Looks like toilet paper to me.

Do yourself the greatest favour: read the Book of God

@catturd2 You lot are such gay puritans.

The very media who were writing fake stories about Kash Patel having a drinking problem, were stealing bottles of wine after the attempted assassination event.

@Mr_Andrew_Fox Nothing wrong with it. It needs to be used somehow.

The clearest articulation yet of the difference between Brits and Americans. Most Brits watching this see it and think “legends”.

@RealDeanCain @SecWar The coke was strong then.

Toxic masculinity. All day long. 🇺🇸 Well done @SecWar Would expect nothing less from this soldier.

@UrsaUrsa93 @dg115511 😂

@dg115511 Yet somehow you’re both

I’d much rather be a Troon than a pathetic online grifter.

@fifetim1916 @gorbalsgoebbels You're a traitor. Scum.

Off to Buenos Aires. Only joking. We habe submarines which can fire nuclear weapons from thousands of miles away if threatened.

@MrHreviews Women just can't help themselves.

There's a shooting, quick quick get your phones out. We're cooked

@PabloEs47631708 @WotBuwcheeks Speak English, cuck.

@WotBuwcheeks jajajaja.... necios.... les gusta vivir en la ignorancia... pregúntenle a chatgpt o grok cuantos países ayudaron a Inglaterra en 1982... Si venían solos y sin ayuda, no duraba 15 días en el mar esa flota. Tiernos, maricas y cabezas de toalla!

"Argentina might attack the Falklands". WITH WHAT? The F16s the RAF can shoot down? Their non existant navy???
