What (some) politicians do

Latest in an occasional series on weird and wonderful APPGs, i.e. All-Party Parliamentary Groups. This week's whip gives notice of meetings of the Boxing Group, the Beer Group, the Flag Group (which campaigns for the various UK flags to be flown on public buildings) and the Obesity Group (not to be confused with the Weight Watchers Group and the Slimming World Group which are also meeting this week).

The one which caught my attention though was the AGM of the Underground Space Group. I imagined it being about the wonderful world of caving and glaciers and stalactites and stalgamites, but I fear it might be about sewers and pipes, "the so-called fourth dimension of a metropolis". Wonder what inspires someone to take this up as their political interest of choice?
