Cerne Abbas brewery, which has only been going for 15 months, has said that no one has taken offence before. Parliamentary beer group chairman Andrew Griffiths MP said: "The beer pump has the famous chalk man on the front of it and he is particularly well-endowed. That caused some consternation among the authorities here in Parliament and so a photocopy of a fig leaf was Blu-tacked in the strategic place. I think honourable members have got their knickers in a twist, but I hope as a result of it they drink a bit more beer."
Personally, I find such coyness rather surprising, coming as it does from a class of people who normally have no compunction in shafting the rest of us on a regular basis.
The brewery's slogan is, 'The modest brewery with giant integrity'.
Out of interest, can you explain - and I'd like specifics here, please - how and why politicians as a whole have "shafted" you? For bonus points, tell us in what way politicians constitute a "class"? I suspect you won't be able to answer.
ReplyDeleteMelvin: it was just a mildly sarcastic side-swipe in what was meant to be a light-hearted post. I've been actively involved in politics of one sort or another since 1973 and I could give you a very lengthy answer, but this is not the place for it as it's a beer & music blog.
