Private Eye is a very British satirical publication. They have excelled on this occasion. Often Private Eye will write in an obscure way. "Tired and emotional" means drunk. This was a reference to a British MP (Member of Parliament) who was caught by the police driving the wrong way round a roundabout. He claimed he was feeling all tired and emotional, the police thought otherwise and found he was drunk. Privite Eye coined that expression.
