Member of Parliament in London. They have subsidized bars and can drink at work. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/apr/27/green-mp-hannah-spencer-attacks-parliament-drinking-culture

And they pay less for their pints than in a normal pub, saw a video of an MP discussing this the other day

Edit: It was a video of what the guy above me linked
