Lords complain of ‘poor wine’ and ‘too much salmon’ in Parliament – Peers sent angry letters about the ‘disappointing’ taxpayer-subsidised food and drink served in the Lords

They can have a tesco meal deal and see how they like that
“Both the Chardonnay and the Sauvignon Blanc are really poor quality… Can something be done?”
Why are they drinking at work anyway? If it’s after hours go to a pub like everyone else.
Their meals should be chosen from menus at schools, hospitals, and prisons. They should be prepared to the same (low) quality for the same (not-so-low) cost.
If they want that to improve, then they can improve things for others.
As for wine, alcohol should be banned from their place of work (save for specific functions/events).
Traitors to the country with their monstrous complaints drag em to the Tower of London to be dealt with in proper fashion.
For real, I think a protest everyone could get behind is if we occupied the Government Wine Cellar. Drinking bottle after bottle of our sitting government’s favourite wine
Jesus Christ
They are paid £300 a day for just showing their face and they are complaining about the food / drink
Might I respectfully suggest that their lordships get a fucking proper job, and if they want better food and wine, use their wages to pay for it, like the rest of us have to.
Pack a sarnie
The fucking audacity. Not only are they getting paid just for showing up they complain about the fucking subsidised scran. Utter shitebags.
I see the tories are playing the deflect card.
They get almost as much money PER DAY as I get PER MONTH from my PIP. They can afford to buy their own shit.
Lmao these fuckers get to complain about their free salmon and wine. Bellends.
Their diamond shoes are too tight as well I bet.
They are almost choosing to not read the room and seem determined to stop hiding how out of touch they are. Are they proud that food bank usage has hit levels we could have conceived of a decade ago? Do they think it is right that millions of children go hungry in one of the most wealthiest countries on Earth? They are complaining about their subsidised food not being Michelin star-level while people will be going to bed to have sleep for dinner. This is what happens when politics is about going to the right schools over being someone who wants to work for the people.
Feel free to buy your own fucking good then, you bunch of silver spoon deep throating, spineless, paper thin, leeching wastes of valuable oxygen
NGL, this is making me want a seat at the house of Lords
Should hire Sodexo to do the catering. They’ll be longing for the days of too much salmon after a few weeks of that crap.
It’s a hard life
Get rid of the HOL already.
These poor over privileged cunts. Wankers the lot of them, what the actual fuck do any of these Piss stains do? At least we see what a fucking shambles of worn out cunts in parliament do. (Not a great fan of them at moment)
Them twats should join r/beermoneyuk and buy their own
methinks one doth protest too much
Debag the lot of ’em and warm their heels to Putney bridge, thats what I say.
Cut subsidies, so they can appreciate the costs. Continue with payment for days involved in democracy, but set a minimum that must be achieved before losing their peerage. Some drastic overhaul is needed here.
Oh no, anyway.
The food served in schools should be of the same quality as the food served in Westminster
spoiled brats
Cost of living and brexit, enjoy your fucking bed you insufferable cunts
Get in the sea! They should buy their own non subsidised food like the civil service do. The nearby workers on Whitehall now forced into the office arbitrarily manage to make do
Well bastille day is coming up so maybe we could reenact something similar?
Sometimes stuff like this makes me hate living in the U.K. it just leaves such a bad taste in the mouth to know that the most privileged in our society are so petty.
I don’t understand ethically why we feed millionaires free food, but not starving children?
This country is such a joke it’s just pathetic at this point
Every damn story I read makes me hate my government more and more. There’s not an honest or down to earth bone in that bloody building
And this is ANOTHER reason why our country is absolutely fucked
These chinless pricks get £300 a day for just turning up. They should absolutely have to pay for all their own food and drink, unsubsidised.
On the one hand, the House of Lords is an antiquated undemocratic system we really should get rid of.
On the other hand, they regularly try their best to mitigate or prevent some of the evillest and shittest laws our government passes.
Let them choke on cake.
Oh diddums. Fucking assholes, they ought to be given 30p each and see what they can buy with that! The fact it’s taxpayer-subsidised is such a pathetic joke as well
Oh no, they can’t get fancy wine for fuck all and get £300 just for showing up. Whilst the rest of us are struggling to make ends meet.

FUCK THE LORDS AND FUCK THEIR ENTITLED PIECES OF SHIT!
