AIBU in thinking that the appalling behaviour in Parliament is reflecting the general mood when it should be trying to set an example to improve relations with each other?

The braying is hideous as is the whole outmoded spectacle. I despair. The younger generations must find it beyond comprehension.

Perhaps the whole edifice is about to tumble.

Yes I agree, I have long thought ( since we have been able to seem them in action) how immature & pathetic many of them sound, especially with the braying etc etc.

We need a general election now to diffuse the tension and frustration within the country.

We as a nation are trying to stamp out bullying in any form but that doesn’t seem to apply for “past their sell by date” politicians who set a very bad example. Seen better behaviour/manners from the younger generation.

I confess that I have now "switched off" from the whole debacle. I am appalled at the language and tactics used by some of our elected representatives. I am appalled that we have actually elected these people to represent us.

If two people on opposing sides cannot speak respectfully to each other, how are they ever to debate and negotiate a successful answer.

The OP asks if their views are old-fashioned. If they are, then please bring back the old-fashioned ways.

I agree with you , all parties behaviour over the last few weeks have been a disgrace and an embarrassment to the country .
