In an effort to make today “have a laugh day” here is a snippet of news from Westminster:
MPs at the House of Commons were hit with a strange short of shortage, after the building came dangerously short of loo roll paper.
In an episode that left officials suitably red-faced, the Palace of Westminster had at one stage on Tuesday morning just two packets left in the whole building.
The company who supplied paper admitted they had a problem with their supplies, but it remained unclear what caused it.
First disclosed in a blog by the Daily Telegraph’s political reporter James Kirkup, commons sources said there were only two packets left to re supply the entire parliamentary estate.
After MPs and Peers were left desperate by the lack of paper, frantic staff rushed throughout the building in a vain attempt to locate any remaining lavatory paper.
As news of the unusual crisis spread through Westminster, some MPs were so desperate for paper they even sent staff to the local Tesco Metro across the road to replenish stocks.
Some reports even suggested that some raided the women’s lavatory, where the supply had yet to run out.
The company responsible for supplying the paper, KGB – Kevan and Gina, Brown – admitted there was a problem with supply.
“There has been an issue with supplies,” a company spokesman said.
But it will be sorted out as soon as possible.”
They could not say what had caused the shortage.
With the amount of crap that comes out of Parliament I am not surprised, mind you they could always use the Lisbon Treaty for all the good it is.

I'm totally amazed that the KGB is supplieing toilet paper to the Commons. If C13 new about it they would have mounted a raid with armed officers straight away. Perhaps we should tell them!
They wouldn't listen anyway blackdog, they are too busy listening in to our phone calls and reading our emails:)
