Kwasi Kwarteng says closing parliament's bars would be 'excessively puritanical' as MPs call for culture changeMr Kwarteng also admitted that the scheme to deal with sexual misconduct allegations in parliament, which was set up in 2018, 'isn't working sufficiently well' but 'needs time to really get going'. So out of touch! work places with bars? Many workplaces would treat it as Gross misconduct if you were drinking alcohol whilst at work.
