The Speaker Owns the House (UK)

I came across this video on the Speaker of the UK's House of Commons;

 

I got to thinking I would not be a very good speaker.  Namely because I imagine telling people to shut the fuck up and throwing things at them would not go over all that well with the MPs.  Plus I would insist on having a big ass gavel that I could pound.

Some of these comments are wonderfully snarky!

You can sit and watch this on the TV over here. Sometimes it's really funny. There's also a good one of the Irish Parliament, go and google F*** you deputy Stagg. You won't regret it.

Oh yeah, I don't regret Googling "fuck you deputy Stagg" in the slightest.

And here it is in all its glory...

Yeah, I'd say that was a little less parlimentary than what they're all used to.
