Parliament is often accused of being old, antiquated, or out of touch; so it's wonderful to see that at least one member of the Commons is willing to modernise.  Step forward, Bercow.   Your new, prohibition era 'greaser' hairstyle is wonderfully fresh, coming straight from the 1920s.

It's clear that not all of the Lord's opposition to the Bill stemmed from the Labour Party, and indeed there were a number of progressive and forward thinking proposals offered from all sides. Discussion of prime numbers and holidays, however, does not fall within this purview.

No, that was just to piss Call-me-Dave off and it was hilarious to watch..

It is hardly surprising, given the relative lack of power of the Lords, that some members may resort to questionable tactics when debating a bill about which they are particularly passionate.

It's unprofessional an unbecoming.

Oh do calm down, it was meant in jest. Go and sort out which motions will be up for debate next week and which will be allowed to fall by the wayside.
