Just in: PM & cabinet eating seal ribs and liver, both raw and boiled. First time PM has eaten seal. Sadly – no photos!

Just to be clear: you originally called the PM & Cabinet "wimps" because Akin thought that only cooked seal meat would be on the menu, and now you are correcting your original Wimps post because it turns out they ate raw seal meat after all?
