    Gave evidence to the select committee looking at crossrail project. A very grand and old establishment. Carpets VERY thick. Wheels kept dragging.

    Try and get into one of the bars. The Sports Bar is our fave, with the look and feel of a real locals' pub.

    Open during the summer but you may get turned away if there are 'emergency' MP meet-ups . .eg. Libyan crisis.

    Ubicado en Parliament Square, el edificio mas bonito de Londres, de arquitectura Gótica, la vista es super chida de noche, y todo lo que quieres ver esta a su alrededor. Visítalo de día y de noche.

    Simbolo di Londra e dell'intera nazione nel mondo insieme con la sua celebre torre; vi si può accedere liberamente e magari assistere a una seduta, non servono neppure documenti basta autocertificarsi
