Ok, so this is just a clip. but every time I watch anything from parliament this the behaviour from both sides is quite frankly appalling. Why do they feel it's "ok" to act / say / and react in the way they do?

I'm not getting at 'him' whoever he is. It's the general tone everyone takes in there.

PMQ's is a joke. A theatre of insults and precious little productivity. Cameron is clearly easy to wind up and he bites quite often.

The whole thing needs an overhaul tbh.

That's what I'm getting at... it's the way EVERYONE reacts in there.

If it was Miliband on Osborne this place would flip flop and say the behaviour is disgraceful. I dont feel rules should only apply to people you dont like.

Of course they do. Someone earlier said 'whats he supposed to do when the opposition front bench are wkers' well you could apply that to both sides.

Its simple, either insults are accepted or they're not. You cant agree with one because you agree with it and disagree when you dont. I'm not sure what the actual rules are around PMQ's but the entire thing is a pointless circus and we may as well do away with it.

Actually it is not quite the same you very rarely get the cabinet or the shadow cabinet from the previous government sitting there shouting over and over at whoever is speaking. You do with the current Labour lot and also under Brown, didn't happen so much before.

It is the same kind of behaviour you get from school kids, or the London Assembly.
