The Parliamentary Counsel is the body of legal eagles that aid the British Government in writing legislation to ensure it’s as clear and all-encompassing as possible.

Seems they had some spare time to write up a [festive quiz](https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxULMxLt8uZLTFNBeFZZWm9kRXc/view). See if you can figure out the songs!

Merry Christmas 🙂
