Yeah no, sorry, MPs are often cooped up in Parliament for 15 hours a day, they will have a drink with journalists or colleagues and will still be discussing politics -their job, as Hannah says. I don’t like the blanket demonisation of MPs and Hannah should know better after she had already been accused of not taking the job seriously because she took part in that dancing event in Portcullis house. It was unfair to call her unserious about that then and it is unfair of her to now suggest that MPs having a drink in between votes which take up all night is by default bad.

Unfair. • 271 MPs claimed £293,000 expenses in a single year for you to pay their heating and electricity bills. • Meanwhile, 2.36 million UK families are living in fuel poverty. MPs should pay their own heating bills.

"They have chosen to impose their personal beliefs on terminally ill adults, condemning many to suffer against their will." Sophie Blake, a supporter of the assisted dying bill, says the dropping of the legislation is "personal" and slams those who did not support it.
