MPs' guide to clearing up broken light bulbs

It said a protective mask and gloves should be donned before tackling stray shards of glass and explained how to brush them up using a piece of stiff card.

A spokesman for the Taxpayers' Alliance said the guidelines were "ridiculous" and a waste of time.
