Stop the sale of alcohol on parliament premises

Background

Ban alcohol sales in Parliament. MPs shouldn't drink on the job when making vital laws for the country. It’s a workplace double standard, and taxpayers shouldn't subsidise cheap, insulated pub prices for politicians while the public struggles with the cost of living.

Additional details

​In almost any other modern profession across the UK, drinking alcohol on the job is a serious disciplinary offense that leads to instant dismissal. Whether you are a nurse, a bank worker, a teacher or a cleaner, being under the influence at work is completely unacceptable. Members of Parliament are public servants who are at their place of work while Parliament is sitting. They should be held to the same standard of professionalism and safety as the rest of the working population.
