Pubs, bikes and EDMs

Well ladies and gentleman, Parliament's back and so are Early Day Motions and some of the MPs have been getting in quick. Current favourite has to be from the Lib Dem MP for Manchester, Withington John Leech, who has tabled,

That this House is alarmed at the rate of pub closures around the country; applauds the former Beautiful South and Housemartins front man Paul Heaton in his efforts to highlight the plight of British pubs and to promote cycling; and wishes him luck on his Pedals and Beer Pumps tour which will see him visit 16 pubs around the country.

Nothing like praising a self-confessed alcoholic for going on a pub crawl on his bike huh?
