I really hope Labour use this overwhelming number of seats to end the childish tradition of drowning out the person speaking with jeers rather than trying to take advantage of it.
Put them in a mobile outside – many of us in public services gave had to work in them.
They can just stand, like they always have done when it’s busy in the chamber. It’s still the same number of MP’s. It’s not like they have never had a new government before. What a truly pointless article.
There wiill be some extra room this time as Sinn Fein won more parliamentary seats than ever before in a constitution they dont believe in and won’t t turn up. At least they should not be fiddling any travel expenses..
Well, the whole building needs refurbishing because it’s on the verge of failing down due to underinvestment in the infrastructure (sound familiar?!), so maybe while they’re ripping out the asbestos and lead pipes they can add in enough seats for every MP in the Commons to be able to sit down for once.
There’s a lot of new YOUNGER MPs (20-30yrs old) they shouldn’t have problems standing. Or sitting on each others laps if thats what they’re into 🙂
I’d have the commons 100% black women if they were competent and improved the running of the fucking country.
Nobody cares, just do your jobs.
