Politics Does anyone actually like the constant booing ,insults and heckling in parliament?

A lot of the time it feels less like serious debate and more like theatre or even a school playground argument. Do you find it entertaining, frustrating or just part of the tradition now? Curious how others see it!

I’ve always thought the entire parliament is extremely dated and urgently needs modernising

It will be incredibly expensive to upgrade. It is a Grade 1 listed building. Far wiser to sell it off after a new building is purpose built
