Chaos in the Commons. Will the Speaker survive?
I can't see Hoyle surviving this. By his actions, he looks biased, even if there were nobler intentions. So he's lost his authority in the Commons making him ineffective.

Parliament at its worse.

Re: Chaos in the Commons. Will the Speaker survive?
The sad thing is, it was a performative vote on an issue they hold no sway over, and it had nothing to do with what's happening in Gaza, and everything to do with the internal politics of the Labour party.
Shameful. |

I don’t have as much political nouse as others on here.
Why is this such a problem ? |

The established procedure was for the SNP to have a vote on their thing (the embarrassing bit for Labour) and then any subsequent amendments made. Instead, it was hijacked by the Labour Party against the established procedures on frivolous grounds by the Speaker. Labour have had numerous opportunities in Parliament to say they want a ceasefire and declined to use the time allotted to them for this. |

All irrelevant twaddle. If any of the rest of us got up and walked out on our jobs.. Load of prima donnas looking for any distraction from the crap job they're not doing.

Putting aside the apparent fiasco in Parliament could anyone tell me what would happen in Isreal should either the SNP or Labour proposals win votes?
I would think Naff-all. |

It doesn’t stop many pointless virtue signalling statements or motions, from Government or opposition parties, being made day in and day out in the chamber. Indeed only yesterday Rishi Sunak, Sir Kier and Stephen Flynn all paid tribute to Russian dissident and probable western intelligence asset Alexei Navalny who, despite dying last week, is only marginally less likely to hold public office in the future than he was the week before last. |
Re: Chaos in the Commons. Will the Speaker survive?
Labour certainly seem to have got up to some Parliamentary skullduggery yesterday but it's hard to feel sorry for the SNP who were playing their own games as well.

It’s one of biggest global issues at present and one that the SNP disagree fundamentally with the Government. The calendar may have given the SNP some luck. The only games being played were by the Labour Party and the now discredited Speaker. The ability or otherwise of Starmer to have coherence among the members behind him should never be a factor in the Speaker hijacking the Parliamentary timetable under the guise of security threats. The last Labour opposition day was February 6th when they could have devoted time to this but elected not to. |
