Our political system is a joke, to those on the inside and outside

Is this the Houses of Parliament , that should lead by example on how to behave in public office , what a sight for youngsters who cannot be arsed to put a cross on a bit of paper , do not blame them .

They really should , all parties included , stop making PMQ an unwatchable awful shouting match .
 
I have no problem with the parties bringing out the worst in each other but the speaker needs to be respected to keep order, and this speaker has been beyond poor, frightened of his own shadow and going hard on soft targets, he might be Labour but he’s very conservative.
 
In any other walk of professional life the behaviour would be unacceptable. Imagine standing up in a work meeting and shouting across the desk waving papers in the air.

Sets an awful example to the public, no wonder MPs are looked upon with distain when they act like a bunch of alcohol-fuelled lunatics in the chamber. It's a bit of a surprise that this behaviour is still accepted, to be honest.

That said, I do find it entertaining!

Ha, you'd have an eye opener in some of my meetings :lol:

But that is hairy arsed construction workers, no a load of toffs who are meant to be running the country.

I said a while ago, these PMQ's are a complete waste of time for all those in attendance, it is just a pantomime, where NOTHING get's done. Time to scrap them.

The rules that the speaker has to uphold are very Conservative.
You can lie all day but if someone calls the liar a liar it's them that gets thrown out.

Personally i think we should keep PMQs and actually treasure them. Over the years they have been funnier than anything I've seen in a comedy club 🤣
