parliament

(The parliament is certainly not THE place for any funny business. The House of Commons in session and in a good mood for a over ‘s motion on . Although not all the MPs had the opportunity to speak their mind on the motion, whoever did managed, left a positive impression on the viewers. Image source: the Net)

Read these first:-

Indelible Ink

(In the end, it was nothing but just a food colouring? Didn’t we paid RM7.1 million for it? Cartoonist – say it all)

Here’s one to digest for your lovely weekend.
