WHAT do Parliamentarians and teachers have in common?

Weeks and weeks holidays! Why? As children have become more educated should they need such extended holidays? As idle minds seem to cause trouble, would it not be sensible to have their grey matter active in school? I would be intrigued to see the crime statistics during holidays periods.

Do our Houses of Power require recesses which last the whole summer, only to be recalled in times of crisis or when Tony sides with the Yanks?
