The Upper house is where they store the loonies apparently. Following a comment that someone had made on the blog I proceeded to enter random impossible search terms into Hansard. For example, I just entered "corned beef" into the search on Hansard, http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm/cmhansrd.htm and epic fun follows " Statistics show that the number of accidents from corned beef cans has been declining and they are not a major cause of accidents now. " "Baroness Sharples: My Lords, can the noble Lord say whether ring-pull cans are safer than ordinary cans which are opened with a tin-opener? Which is safest?"
"Lady Saltoun of Abernethy: My Lords, is the Minister aware that if, having taken off one end of the corned beef can with the twisty thing provided—assuming that you have not lost it—you then take a common, ordinary, household tin-opener and take off the other end, it is very easy to push the corned beef out of the tin without any danger to yourself? Lord Sainsbury of Turville: Yes, my Lords, I was aware of that, and I am very glad that that essential piece of information is passed round for the benefit of this House." *sigh* uncaged lunatics with titles.
