The more I think about it, the more I think Training Risky's idea is a winner.
But I have a cunning addition to this plan; the pills to be taken by the politicos would be drawn from a pool created by donations from prescriptions already issued to randomly selected serving personelle.
Not that we wouldn't trust them to take the same stuff, of course.
MoD officials, Doctors, and other Experts or Persons Of Rank who support the program and proclaim it's safety could be required to join the politicians on the dias for the daily ritual of "swallowing" as a condition of expressing their views.
Finally, a further randomly selected jury of serving personelle would monitor the taking of pills and the broadcast thereof, and ensure that no-body left the scene until digestion had commenced.
I can't see why anyone would be against this idea; after all, it's perfectly safe, and they have nothing to hide or fear. Do they?
