PARLIAMENT'S HIDDEN BOOZE PROBLEM EXPOSED!

PARLIAMENT'S HIDDEN BOOZE PROBLEM EXPOSED!

Within the imposing walls of the Palace of Westminster lies a secret many outside don’t know: a thriving pub culture. Strangers’ Bar, perhaps the most well-known, isn’t just a place for a quiet drink; it’s a focal point of parliamentary life, and a source of growing debate.

the Stranger's Bar in the House of CommonsMANCHESTER, ENGLAND - APRIL 23: Hannah Spencer, Green Party MP for Gorton & Denton, visits Levenshulme High Street for a local election campaign event on April 23, 2026 in Manchester, England. The Green Party aims to transform high streets into community-led hubs by replacing multinational dominance with a thriving local economy. Their strategy focuses on making leases affordable for independent traders through business rate exemptions and VAT breaks, while using compulsory purchase orders to reclaim long-term empty shops for community arts, social housing, and music. Central to this vision is a democratic overhaul of the planning system that grants residents a direct voice in development and ensures that local spending remains within the community.
