Business question from Richard Bacon (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 October 2007. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
Does the Leader of the House agree that there are far too many fat Members of Parliament? Speaking as one of them—I feel that I should declare my interest—I welcome the recent report in the Financial Times about proposals to refurbish the House, which include replacing the shooting range with a swimming pool. Will she consider the matter soon, and make a statement? I am suggesting that too many MPs are fat, including me. We could replace the shooting range with a swimming pool, a proposal that has been commented on in the newspapers, and I wanted to know what the Leader of the House thought about it.
