Shocking news from Ye Olde Country:
The speaker of the House of Commons has said he is calling in police to investigate reports that drug use is “rife” in the British Parliament — as Prime Minister Boris Johnson dressed up as a police officer to promote his tough new anti-drug strategy for the country.
A report in Britain’s Sunday Times said a dozen sites inside the Palace of Westminster, which includes the House of Lords and House of Commons, tested positive for traces of cocaine.
Areas of interest included the bathrooms nearest Johnson’s office and those of Home Secretary Priti Patel, who is in charge of domestic security. (our emphasis)
To be honest, traces of toot have been found close to rooms used by the Labour Party. But, let's hear more about BJ's cosplay outing in Liverpool after the report was issued:
The report came just as Johnson was set to announce a 10-year plan to hold drug offenders responsible and combat crime in England and Wales. On Monday, he was pictured [see above] with police in the city of Liverpool while wearing a dark uniform and a black hat with “police” stitched in white across the front — an image that caused a stir on social media as #cocaine became a top Twitter trend in the United Kingdom.

“So Downing Street stands accused of breaking the law and hosting a Christmas party when they instructed us all not to do so, and the PM is cutting about on national television dressed as a police officer? Totally normal country,” Scottish lawmaker Stewart McDonald tweeted Monday.
Don't forget to add "toot in Parliament!" Welcome to the "totally normal country" club, Britain!
