The SNP try to serve the people of Scotland but we are ignored in there or shouted down.Scotland has no voice in that place.

@audreymcgready4329 no one has a voice my friend !!! the agenda already playing out .

​@@audreymcgready4329 Scotland is their own country

Would get a lot worse MPs if they aren’t paid

The majority of politicians are criminal parasites and nothing more.

And dowden certainly isnt

@@Nick-fg4dq Dowdy Dowden reminds me of looking like an extra from ‘Are You Being Served?’’ - Not sure what the answer to that is….

@@SirKeefyKeef Galloway is articulate, nobody can fault him on that, I do not agree with him on much he says, but he is a man who says what he believes to be correct and sticks to it, as for the Chair she is useless, Dowden's Face always turns my Milk sour!

Jeeez what mushrooms you on galloway is a shit

Shame he's an Islamic convert communist.

Put simply because he's bloody braindead.

All courts are maritime and not of the jurisdiction of England

The Rest are All Scum George You’re the best

Don't worry he won't he eats people like that for breakfast.

I'm someone of the uk and I don't recall you speaking for me, I am not with George galloway at all.

George galloway who once stood and bowed in front of sadam hussein and said sir i salute you,,thats what kind of a shit he is should not be anywere near parliment

He is not intrested in the indigenous people of the UK is he?

Who else if not the subject matter experts. It's never too late.

Jimmy was only in Leeds I am pretty sure he could have fixed it for them

perhaps they did!

And the fact that they were all Muslims, a fact Galloway didn't mention. Must have slipped his mind.

@@Psmith-ek5hq So are YOU blaming him for that

The MPs have to be free to say (or not say) whatever it is that they want to say. It's us, the people, who get to put them in their place (or remove them from it!) - it isn't her job to dictate to my MP what he should say. If people don't like their MPs turning up at the dispatch box and saying "Ditto" then they can, and should, vote them out. The reason the Tories are polling so badly right now is because they're useless and people like you and I can see it from these debates. But censorship or enforced speech is not the job of The Speaker. Their job is simply to keep order and ensure that a debate takes place. They aren't there to aid or assist or disable the MPs at making or not making useful contributions.

The theives have taken over the parliament

@@DeShark88 points for the correct answer. He's made his point, there are political consequences (or not). I'm thinking, given the minister is entirely correct, there won't be. It was an absurd question and he was well within his rights to answer it with an absurd answer.

Surprised you didnt salute him

@@dlamissor lick his arse

I already have 👍

The speaker or deputy speaker can't and does not have the power, to intervene on the substance or detail of an answer.

It definitely is allowed, and *must* be allowed! We, the people, decide whether we like or dislike the content of what comes out of our MPs' mouths. And it's our choice to (re-)elect them or otherwise. The Speaker doesn't (and shouldn't) have the power to force an elected representative to say or not say anything.

We the people have the power to vote every five years - that’s all the power we get. We did not choose the pm or other ministers . Our power to influence the conduct of minsters is nearly zero- nothing compared to quangos, big companies, party donations, etc. The speakers role allowing questions to go unanswered would not be tolerated by judges in courts if witnesses gave these kind of “don’t care” answers.

No he isn't

@@thomaspowell1857 Surely you are therefore obligated to explain why?

​@@thomaspowell1857 The political elites hate George, so he must be doing something right.

@@dpagain2167 what is a legend? Someone who does something good for the country george has done Jack all

He’s a terror simp and an enemy of western society. Dines and dined with some of the most outrageous genocidal maniacs in modern history. To some he’s a legend. To others he’s just another awful human.

Stand up comedy is George's forte. But stand up comedians get paid a lot less than him, although funnier, because we pay his salary, and that's not funny.

@@sammckinstry Yes, but he's a darn sight better than the other parasites in government.

Galloway is just an anti-Semite.

@@sammckinstry At least he doesn't spend it on gak and rentboys.

😂 Yeah sure he is 🤡

Lots of lazy MPs (not) there! 😏

Pun intended?

Yes the others are in the bar getting sloshed on their Zionist money.

@@oneoflokis Exactly. It's called refusal to work. ☺?

it has become a feature of recent times, it is by design, to undermine serious debate, by paying M.P's HANDSOMELY to stay away.

That's because they are not opposition. And they work for their back pockets from the tax laundry.

No he isn't

They haven't worked for 'the public' in generations. Stop voting, it's pointless.

@@thomaspowell1857 Oh yes, he is!

@tokenspirit6140 no he isnt

Zarah Sultana and Mhairi Black too.

yep.

No he isn't

​@thomaspowell1857 pray tell why not 🤔.

He was fully in lock step with the lock downs and said they weren't hard enough and should have been implemented sooner...

@@davidpearn2484 because he has been shown shaking hands with terrorist leaders

I kind of disagree with you. She was effectively, agreeably in a roundabout way, saying George,I agree with you ( especially as I have to listen to this grit over and over) but there is butter all I can do about it ( pardon my censoring). She is no where near as bad as Lyndsey Foil

The people of Britain did not put her on that chair - that is what they want you to believe. They SERVE those who put them there and we know they do not serve the people of Britain

they're trained that way, to bamboozle the masses, in another words, they speak so much and actually say or mean nothing much of relevance.🤔

Exactly I was like just say you ain’t gonna do nothing and move on. It’s like corruption is baked in the cake of our systems. Boy it’s something to watch it’s really like some broadway show pure nonsense and characters and everything. Sad times we are in.

What he said was not really a point of order tho so the answer is it’s not a matter for the chair

i.e. majority of politicians.

A great observation

I think in America it's called pleading the 5th

Because they don’t think peadophilia is wrong in any way! That’s why

I completely understood what she said. That it was not a matter for the chair tho she agrees with him

It was very clear to the rest of us.

Perhaps such deliberate evasion on the part of ministers in answering an MP 's perfectly legitimate question SHOULD be a matter for the Speaker . Otherwise what is their purpose and what happens to ministerial accountability to THE PEOPLE'S ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES ? ? ​@@gothicgolem2947

Nah, he's nearly always close to the truth, though that's often very uncomfortable.

Unfortunately I find myself agreeing more and more with The Speaker on these matters. The moment the speaker starts to force MPs to say or not say certain things is the moment that our representatives lose their voice and lose the ability to represent their constituents. If the MP is not doing a good job, then their constituents can let this be known at the ballot box. This is how our democracy works and has worked for hundreds of years.

😅😅😅

it's the NEW AGE thing, waffle on with claptrap to avoid getting snared in the RAT TRAP.

Then go ahead and design a better system.

I'm half Scottish and half Welsh but this question dodging is not exclusive to "Anglo Saxons". I think you'll find *any* politician in the wrong will resort to these lowly tactics.

What's your suggestion?

AND MOST OF THE MINISTERS

No-go-zone?

Smoll hatters

Maybe change town name to Noncedale?

Coz you’ve been overrun with Pakistanis. It’s as simple as that

One of the grooming gang members was sentenced to 6 years in prison, but was released after 2.5 years, he was supposed to be deported years ago, but is still living in Rochdale. Disgraceful.

He's not my king. My king is Jesus and Charles

*Any* MP can say what they want. That's the point. It's not for The (Deputy) Speaker to tell MPs what to say or not to say.

@@DeShark88 we know that,it should be the rules of that building that"everyone will answer questions asked and it should be house policy that the chairperson is in charge and should make the ministers answer,if not it should also be that the minister gets fired"these ppl are voted in by the public to look after our interests not their own,if you represent the public you should be willing to answer to the public not make excuses

@@keithparlour2686 it's a slippery slope. How do you force someone to answer a question? They may not have the answer, the question might be stupid, the answer might endanger someone's life, the answer might have already been given ten times in a given sitting. Are we then to have rules that "a question can only be asked X number of times in a session". This micromanagement of MPs does them a disservice. I leave it to my MP's discretion whether they think I will expect them to answer a question or not.

@@keithparlour2686 your point about deselection is a separate one. The Recall of MPs Act 2015 could be bolstered in my opinion. I agree that recall mechanisms are too weak in this country.

They all know the questions before hand so they should get the answers prepared ready,if they knew their jobs they should have no problem answering anything on it,trouble is most of them are there because they are good mates and arskissers not because they know what they are doin,saying that though,their advisers should be sacked for advising them wrong"on purpose mostly"

Oh FFS don't talk to me about Bridgen He,s off his rocker. There's saner people than him in Broadmoor.

The gentleman is renowned for calling out the volumes and pungency of bad smells emanating from ruling parties. But have you asked the question about why he will never become a prime minister?

I want some of that stuff your smoking 😂😂

Wouldn't be the first time he's played a cat.
