Nice work if you an get it...

They've just had a month off for the election.

MPs' bumper 80-day summer break

MPs are to have an 80-day summer break from the House of Commons.
Commons leader Geoff Hoon said the House will rise on 21 July - and not return until 10 October, after the party conference season.

That means the recess begins a week earlier than expected - and does not include the short sitting in September introduced in recent years.

Ex-Foreign Office minister Chris Mullin said he was disappointed the Commons was reverting to such a long break.

I bet he is. He could always go back early and set a good example. Or stay on the beach. Whatever.
