Apparently accidentally swaying to music in a pub is a ticketable offense in
Westminster and perhaps elsewhere in London as well. Having two musicians
performing apparently is OK but don't you dare tap your foot...

It's refreshing to know that politicians are stupid everywhere.

quoting my favorite line: "On a personal note, I would like to say that, to
the best of my knowledge, spontaneous dancing is not in the top 10 lists of
great social ills of our time."
