I certainly do. Half my time off-shore seems to be having a Cowboy stretch in the Rec Room. 🤣

You seriously think he's the first to have had a nap in the commons? And actually there'd probably be more of them doing so if they weren't out in the bar getting pissed, or shagging their PA in the stationary cupboard.

 

And actually, working class people frequently catch a few winks while getting paid, I'd like to see anyone who hand on heart has never done it.

 

You don't like the guy, fair enough, you're just the type the media was feeding.

I must admit I get to put my feet up if I’m waiting on a tanker, but on the whole people don’t get to sleep on the job. It’s the audacity to do it in parliament that grinds a bit.

I agree. Its a piss take to be a supposedly public servant sleeping on the job when they should be running the country. In full view of cameras too. Should be a sackable offence, that would wake them up.

Wasn't he the "Father of the house" when he was having a cheeky snooze, living up to the expectations of every elderly grandparent!.

In that case he wasn't sleeping, he was listening whilst resting his eyes

Nodding off is one thing, spread out like you are on a chaise lounge is another. I’m not sure it would wake ‘em up, it seems they can do what they please and still stay in a job.

Firemen? 
 

They get paid for getting their fat crackers down, then get paid for playing 5 a side during the day, then go home for a kip before cracking on with the second job fully refreshed after a few watches of doing SFA at tax payers expense. Probably be out on strike soon too so that some poor squaddie has to do their job with WWII equipment and an afternoon training.
