British MP Caught Playing Candy Crush On iPad In Parliament

Darpan News Desk IANS, 08 Dec, 2014 11:48 AM
    A British MP was caught playing Candy Crush, a popular puzzle game, on his iPad while attending a parliamentary committee meeting.
     
    Conservative Party MP Nigel Mills was caught playing the hit online game Candy Crush Saga during a meeting of the works and pensions committee, of which he is a member, The Guardian reported Monday.
     
    Amber Valley MP Nigel Mills was elected in 2010.
     
    "There was a bit of the meeting that I wasn't focusing on and I probably had a game or two," said Nigel Mills.
     
    "I shouldn't do it but if you check the meeting I would say I was fully engaged in asking questions that I thought were particularly important in how we get the pensions issue right. I shall try not to do it in the future."
