Erm, don't judges bone-up on case law in their Chambers? Is the same term perhaps used for MP's workplaces, although I can't place a booze by that name.

They do, but you're thinking too generally. Try being specific. Where _are_ MP's Offices?

Portcullis House doesn't smell right.

Well, another slang-term for booze is "sauce", HP has a picture of the houses of parliament on the label, after the recipe was ought off the original manufacturer, to make people think it was named for the "Houses of Parliament", instead of Henry Pricker's Sauce.

Unless I'm being too litteral and it's LONDON Gin or WHITEHALL brandy (I think I'm making the last one up).

PORTcullis house, you mean? ;)
