Nigel Griffiths, the MP at the centre of the Parliamentary sex scandal, has defended his tryst at his Commons office; claiming that it was more cost-effective than making whoopee in a hotel and therefore provided “value for taxpayers’ money.” Griffiths had previously denied the affair until he was confronted with photographic proof of his liaison with a mystery brunette. When faced with the photos, he is reported to have said "Ah."
However, Griffiths has robustly defended himself against allegations of bringing the House of Commons into disrepute. He stressed that using his office for his midnight bonkfest curtailed the need to go elsewhere, and thereby avoided the incurring of expenses that would otherwise have to be footed by the taxpayer. In a statement made from outside the Wycombe Travelodge, he said, "At a time when money and black lace stockings are tight, I made what I believe to be the right decision. Making the beast with two backs in my office has showed that I am committed to saving my constituents’ money. Even if it does get in the way of my commitment to the sanctity of marriage just a smidge. Oh, and you might want to tell the Speaker to wipe down his chair."
Outrage has also greeted the revelation that Griffiths’ love marathon happened on Remembrance Sunday. But as is clear from the photographs, at no time during the lust-filled session did the sordid MP wear his poppy. Veterans Association President, Roger Harper, said, "Millions died during two World Wars so that Mr. Griffiths could be free to get conkers deep in the House of Commons. The least he could have done when he had her bent over his desk and about to receive a good seeing to, was to have had his poppy on. Blue-tac, selotape, put behind an ear, whatever. We’re not asking much."
