First Minister’s Questions at The Senedd 14:23 - Oct 23 with 1061 views

Anybody else watching that on BBC2? It’s like a comprehensive school, third-year take on constitutional politics. The inconsequential fluff they’re gibbering about, the amateur staging of the session and the feckin’ state on some of the howlers hoggin’ camera time...

It’s difficult to believe they are being handsomely paid for this caper, almost impossible to swallow where that money comes from.

An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

Why ?

And are they any worse that Boris, Dancing May, IDS, DD, Gove and Corbyn. Worse than the DUP even ?

Makes the previous generations look like political giants by comparison.
Westminster really is dreadful.
I mean one guy Chope even voted to stop a new law on upskirting.

And Westminsters treatment of Windrush people is inhuman.
And dont talk about Brexit risking peace in the north of ireland for nothing.

Is the Welsh Parliament the real story here?

IMO it's a 'more-of-the-same' Thatcherite regional partition facilitator but with an extremely expensive building along with personnel costs better spent elsewhere.....Just bring a few of Nicholas Edwards junior ministers back to run things to continue with Cardiff and rest of Wales, rich region before poorest policies.

That shower of sh1t in the WAG ( SW Wales champion Dai Lloyd excluded) are an utter waste of money!

You reeled that Westminster list of seven off the top of your head, Killy. Try and do the same with regional AMs.

It's our fault. Whilst we keep toddling off up to the voting booths like the lemmings we are it'll just keep happening. Again and again. We just keep encouraging them.

For a change? Helen Mary Jones is different alright!

Did you actually get to see any of it, Killy? It may be on catch-up if you didn’t? It’s worth watching for the peculiarity of it all. Adam Price turned up dressed like something out of an Ealing Comedy, which was worth the admission on its own. Beth was sat just to the left behind him looking for all the world as if she was either sloshed (not impossible) or was having a stroke. Helen Mary was to his right muttering to herself while performing some sort of acrobatic routine with her suspiciously masculine-looking eyebrows.

There came Leanne’s turn. Up she got in mid-October dressed in a Summer frock and tried to put a question to the Chair that she had obviously tried and failed to memorise which had her tracing her finger in a panic across her prep notes desperately trying to pick up the thread. The gigantic Wiccan-looking woman in the Chair had clearly had enough of this and airily dismissed Wood’s rambling, anxious, no doubt, to bring the session to a close so she could run naked around some standing stones outside Abergavenny.

That UKIP walloper was the star turn. Clearly relishing the occasion, and with his finger tips barely protruding from a blazer that I’m guessing must be his father’s, delivered an unneringly accurate impression of Harry in Third Rock From the Sun!

While all this was going on I kept watching the chap, I’m guessing he was some sort of Recorder, sat to the left of the Chair and thinking what on earth is he doing? Either he was bored out of his mind or in some way autistic. He would take his pen apart and put it on the desk, leave it a few seconds, look around, then reassemble it. He was doing and redoing that for the entire duration of the proceedings. Perhaps that IS his job? Pen-fiddler to the Welsh Assembly? Could be, it was about as productive as anything else going on in there that afternoon.

You’d just as well watch it, Killy. You paid for it.

Other side of the coin, in this case other parliaments, Westminster is like a zoo, N.I Assembly doesn't even currently sit and the EU parliament doesn't seem to have good attendance.

Maybe the EU parliament is like the Lords, they all turn up to sign in and claim the expenses then go and do something more interesting?

When it comes to politics, is anybody really surprised that watching our elected chambers live is like watching a bunch of 10 year old kids arguing over who's best at conkers?

Westminster live has long been a shouting shop, actually 10 yr olds usually behave better!

The Welsh chamber is a pale imitation, it's like comparing "Still open all hours" to "Only fools and horses" except neither one is open all hours or has any horses, just plenty of fools.

They are a far better standard of politician in the Welsh Assembly compared to Westminster imo [no agenda for saying that, I think our AM's are a cut above the MP's in Westminster].
