Reckless Drunk
The wonderfully named Mark Reckless on being too drunk to vote on the Finance Bill:
"I remember someone asking me to vote and not thinking it was appropriate, given how I was at the time.
"If I was in the sort of situation generally where I thought I was drunk I tend to go home.
"Westminster is a very special situation and all I can say... is given this very embarrassing experience I don't intend to drink at Westminster again."
It's funny, but in most places I've worked if you are drunk in the workplace then you get the sack. Reckless is lucky - very lucky - that he is in the Commons, where it is one rule for his lot, and one rule for the rest of us...

I thought it was mandatory for the thieves of wesminster to be drunk when making decisions that affect us all.
@TonyF:
No, it's not mandatory; it just seems that way because of all the daft legislation they pass.
No wonder we get such wonderfully drafted laws.
