UK Parliament Loses ‘Order’ As They Shut Down For 5 Weeks | All In | MSNBC

  1. That whole comment about ‘Thing 1’ was stupid and sounded juvenile. The whole ceremonial procedure is steeped in a rich history and tradition. It is not any more silly than American ceremonial procedure on The Hill.

    1. Steven Prime : Just because it’s steeped in tradition doesn’t mean it can’t be funny as well, if only because of the anachronistic nature of it. We laugh at our own procedures too, if that makes you feel any better.

    2. @ErykaSoleil I have a sense of humour, too. But the way he commented about it sounded juvenile and a bit derogatory – to my ears at least. It was like “look at those silly English people doing those silly English things.” I almost detected a sneer.

    1. The Hiking gamer : Are you asking about why they wear the wigs, instead of just styling their hair that way? You do not want to attempt those traditional styles without wigs, trust me. I have had to do them for theatre work on occasion, and they are an absolute nightmare to accomplish on anything naturally attached to a living person.

  2. I’d so love to be within earshot of speaker John Bercow as he places a Food ORDARRRRRRRR at a restaurant or store. 🗣 👂

  3. The conservative who is a champions for liberal causes,notice Labour and Liberal Dems applaud him,his own party not.This guy is so entertaining.

    1. David Hill : Thank you for clearing that up. I was thinking that was a woman based on the cut of the costume and general appearance, but I wasn’t sure after Chris said “he”.

  4. I don’t think this segment was as strong as some of the others have been. Thing One was a missed opportunity to throw in some education with the humor (for example, I learned why they use the French from reading through the comments, although I might have Googled it later out of curiosity), and it wasn’t the best lead-in for Thing 2. And how could you talk about that man and NOT MENTION HIS FABULOUS TIES??
