And Here's What He's Like At Westminster

The following email was today sent out to all House of Commons staff by the Sergeant-at-Arms:

Before the recess the Speaker approved the Administration Committee’s recommendation that Members should have priority access to services throughout the Commons part of the Parliamentary Estate. With effect from today, staff and other users should be prepared to give way to Members when queuing for retail and catering services, the post office, travel office or when using other facilities such as lifts, photocopiers, telephone cubicles, etc. When using parliamentary facilities, please bear in mind whether there is, or is likely to be, a heavy demand from Members and, if so, try to amend your own plans or schedule.

One member of this Administration Committee is Kevan Jones MP, who is "well-known" to several regular readers of this blog. They will no doubt be delighted, and mightily relieved, at how very unlike his Westminster persona he is when dealing with constituency affairs...
