I'd like start a thread on British PMQ's, I watch them every week and I would like to provide commentary as well as give a verdict on the winner, of couse I will be wrong in all the UKers eyes, so I hope you all will chime in too, I think I'd like to start with a few weeks ago, when Parliament came out of recess.

Coming Soon.

I can't stomach all that yah-boo behaviour on the part of our politicians no matter which side of the House they sit on, so I very rarely watch

I gather Brown tends to struggles when up against Cameron but that says nothing when you consider George W Bush performed rather pathetically against John Kerry in the 2004 presidential debates, especially, the first one Roll Eyes. William Hague was pretty much a virtuoso at Prime Minister's Question Time but there is more to governing a country and representing Britain's interests on an international field than performing sharp and eloquently at PMQ's

Dave

Except when the government begins to get hammered from many angles the PMQ one seems to sting quite a bit more.

PMQ's has become a caricature of itself.


So has the Government.

'Oh no you di-ahnt'

Sorry, that was uncharacteristically low brow for me Smiley

I felt the sting when I typed it.

I was kidding, I just don't think that Question Period sounds very exciting.

Sigh... Yes I have, it is brutal, I wish we here in America had something like it, the name is just terribly boring.
