PMQ's

For those of us who watched PMQ's today it was another sad disappointment. An old, old pillar of our democracy is now a total sham. We have a Prime Minister who never answers a question and MP's who ask pathetic set up questions for the No 10 propaganda machine. If they did that in China we would call foul. Its always been pretty poor but Im sure its getting worse.
Perhaps it could be made more interesting, the PM could be wired to a lie detector whose results show on a big plasma screen. What about a random number generator that picks MP's and they instantly ask a question, no rehearsals or stage management. Why not play a joker, on that question the PM has to answer only Yes or no, that would cut out the spin and flim flam.

It is sad that we do not appear to hold our "rulers" to account, and OUR members of parliament put party politics above there constituents interests
