Petition Action

To demand Parliament to hold PMQ sessions in an adult, civilised manner.

Petition Details

Parliamentary process, as it stands, does not engender an intelligent, considered or factual debate. It's voice is little more than the emotional chanting of kindergarten children. We ask that Parliament passes a law with regards to its procedure - to silence its mob, to answer questions directly.

Additional Information

When members are allowed to cheer their own side and jeer the other, they reveal an inability to deal with, or an indifference to the matter at hand - the running of a government and a nation.

When a Prime Minister can be asked a direct question and choose to redirect it into a quip, a light ad hominem attack directed at the inquirer, without giving any answer to what is asked, Parliament acts without efficacy.

If a member has no additional intellectual input, silence should be requested.
