You want to come on? Yes, you can certainly come on. Those are all the beautiful buildings on the right hand of me. We all call these the Houses of Parliament. Of course, it's correct and to my over, is the new palace of Westminster. It was designed by Sir John Wolfe Barry and the some main features of the building are the two towers. You have got one on each end of the building. After this end of the building, you gave got the clock tower and the Victoria Tower and that's where all the bailey pipers came for every general election.
If you look at the top of the Victoria tower, you will see a black flag pole with a gold crown. Well, whenever the Parliament is in session, whenever MP walks into this building, they fly a Union flag from that flag pole to denote that Parliament is in session.
We have a workforce in this entire country that has to fly flags as approached to everybody else that they are doing something. It's quite funny that the MP's called their walk a session because that's exactly what goes on in the building with folks, drinking sessions that is in the thirteen tax free barrels that are contained inside the building.
