Enforce a code of conduct relating to members of Parliment.
Following the abuse levelled at the Leader of the Opposition such as "wear a better suit" and "sit down and shut up" there should be repercussions for the continued poor behaviour of those allegedly representing the manners and standards of behaviour of the British population.
Jeremy Corbyn was told to "sit down and shut up" as he criticised the Iraq War in a speech to the House of Commons after the publication of the Chilcot report.
Labour MP for Dudley North Ian Austin heckled the Labour leader, telling him to "shut up" and shouting "you're a disgrace".
