Nap Senator on first day

canberra - Politicians who take a nap while sitting on the plush. Very rare is not it, but it happened to the brand new Australian senator Derryn Hinch on a very painful moment: on his first day in parliament.

The former journalist was down mercilessly by the cameras when he just dozed off during a soporific speech from a colleague. A party member had to shake him awake.

Striking detail: recently Hinch yet approved a new rule photographers in parliament gives more freedom. Until recently could only be established politicians who have their say. This is to avoid more embarrassing snaps of parliamentarians with deviant behavior.

     They will soon be dumped

     Company party gets out of hand
     
     
      
        0:35
      
     'Sylvana, how do you explain this?'
     
    
   
  

Yet Hinch does not want the rule is reversed. 'Whether you wax in your mouth stops or you're counting money... People should always be able to see what politicians. '

About his nap are Hinch: 'When I was still radio, I always did an afternoon nap. It's a bit of my system. Actually, it was not much going on here. I was to get away, but I missed nothing of the speech. And colleagues, I heard that a minister could not keep open eyes. '

Just before his next appearance in the Senate Hinch announced via Twitter that he had found a cure for unwanted naps: the anti-sedative NoDoze.
