Katy Clark, MP for North Ayrshire and Arran, has welcomed the promise by Labour which will see new dads receive four weeks paid drinking leave rather than the current two weeks if the party is elected into government in May. The pledge also increases the drinking fund to new fathers by £120 per week to £260.

| Katy Clark - fighting for the dads |
“Fathers deserve time to come to stock with their life, and need to escape from greeting weans and the mundanity of watching their women changing shitty nappies. This policy will benefit hundreds of local fathers each year. Dads deserve the right to go on a 4 week bender after what can be a harrowing nine months. Also, why shouldn't hard working dads get the right, if only for a short 4 weeks to get to watch Jeremy Kyle & down a bottle of red first thing in the morning like mums traditionally do?"
“It is the sort of progressive change that local people can expect if they vote Labour in May.” Labour have said the new policy will be vital
to the local economy of public houses in North Ayrshire.
