Beer with half-naked woman label banned in UK Parliament

February 03, 2012 12:51

The House of Commons has ordered the removal of a beer called Top Totty from its bar because the beverage's pump plate, which features a half-naked woman, offended female MPs.

Shadow Equalities Minister Kate Green was left "disturbed' after seeing the 4 per cent ale's advertising and demanded bar staff remove it from sale.

Within 90 minutes, House authorities ordered the beer to be withdrawn after Commons' Leader Sir George Young told MPs that 'action will be taken'.
