Suits you, sir!

Cheeky Tory AM Alun Cairns has revealed what some AMs really get up to during those long debates in the Senedd, thanks to the new technlogy installed in the chamber.
Apparently, one minister of the crown went shopping on-line for a new suit before checking out Radio 4's website for 'The Archers'.
The minister is furious that this should feature on the AM's blog and may have suggested that 'blogging' from the chamber falls into the same category.

The AM for South Wales West's blog entry "Multi-tasking" alleges: "As I sit in the chamber, Kirsty Williams, David Melding and I have just caught Brian Gibbons buying a new suit on-line.
"Apparently, the suits are available on the BMA website - so it was work, after all.
"Melding suggested cuttingly (pardon the pun) that he also order one for the First Minister!
"Update: He’s now lookking at Radio 4’s The Archer’s website. Agricultural policy, do you think?"
