Tow it up the River Thames, anchor it off the Houses of Parliament, run a footpath across to the old girl and use it for MP'S accommodation!

One just hopes the Arks Captains personal Chef on last nights Masterchef does ok in the competition, as he may well have nothing to go back too.

How about fill it full of Harrier and Nimrod munitions, moor it next the Palace of Westminster and give one of those new-boy MPs a box of matches to go play in the hangar deck.
