Top Totty beer banned............

A beer called Top Totty has been banned from the Strangers' Bar in the House of Commons because its pump plate, featuring a half-naked woman, offended female MPs. :loco:

Maybe it's the bunny ears. Playboy clubs were considered "Swinging" and"With it" back in the day when the "in crowd" used such terms. I doubt of there are any Playboy bunnies left now days......except in period photographs or maybe as "granny" who used to be a bunny in her youth. The franchise moved to London do you think?

The result of the vote says it all.
The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.

The term "half naked" would seem to imply she was bare-breasted, but the photo shows a woman wearing a bikini.
TV commercials for Victoria's Secret show more than that, and the BBC shows a lot more than that. Way over-reacting. :roll: :roll:

There is one Playboy Club left, in the Palms Hotel Casino in Las Vegas, it opened in 2006.
Booze and gambling with bunnies in costume at all the gambling tables and bars, like the old days. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Pump plate, is that what you call a beer tap??? :lol: :lol:
