The atmosphere in the parliament hall on the first floor had reached its peak, and the opposition party finally put forward their demands at the moment when they were at the height of their momentum after so long of questioning and questioning and forcing the official representatives of the ruling party into a corner.

The demand is simple, it is to reform transportation. There are a lot of details, because I don't understand the background and I don't understand much, plus the opposition party member speaks quickly, watching his mouth fly up and down, I suddenly have the illusion that I am not listening to the parliamentary discussion now, but sitting in a small theater listening to the cross talk actors' performances.

I muttered in a low voice, "Good guy, if you go to Deyun Club, with this ability to scold people without dirty words and ten words a second, it is estimated that there will be nothing wrong with Yue Yunpeng." ”

Flower turned his head and glanced at me suspiciously, "Who is Yue Yunpeng?" ”

I laughed and said, "A cross talk guy has been very popular recently." Like this councilor, they all eat by mouth. ”

Flower immediately understood the gist of my words and laughed, "You have a point." These parliamentarians do sometimes seem to be talking about cross talk. ”

After the opposition legislators had finished talking about all the solutions, the ruling party did not immediately stand up, and a bunch of government officials first whispered and discussed for more than ten minutes. Then the leader slowly stood up, "I don't think there is any merit in this plan, the best way is to maintain the status quo first." ”

The opposition legislators suddenly stopped doing it, and their feelings became extremely excited, and several legislators even began to roll up their sleeves and prepare to fight with the government representatives opposite.

Looking at the excited opposition legislators, I can understand some of their feelings, Balabala struggled to talk and compare for a long time, but the other side took a sentence without any merit and sent it away, which will make anyone unhappy, and it is not so easy to coax children.

An opposition lawmaker stood up and gritted his teeth and asked the government representative: "Excuse me, what is there in our plan?" ”

The government representative raised an official tone, "This issue is very complicated, and I will not be able to explain it clearly for a while now." We need to discuss it before we can get back to you. ”

I looked at Flower and teased: "I will not be able to explain it for a while, but I know that the plan is not advisable, I didn't expect your British officials to be so virtuous." ”

Flower gave me a helpless look, then looked at the arrogant government representative with hatred, "No, that kind of idiocy is only a very small minority. ”

Immediately afterwards, the opposition legislators raised several questions to the government representatives about the undesirable nature of the plan and the shortcomings of the current plan, but they were all prevaricated by the arrogant government representatives. No matter what the representatives of the opposition party asked, the lord always insisted that there was nothing merit in this plan, and the best way was to maintain the status quo first, which is quite like the meaning of the novel that he forced him to blow the hills.

It's not good to say, it's just pretending to be stupid and stunned, and the pig is not afraid of boiling water, so he will drag on with you.

After more than an hour of tug-of-war, an opposition MP suddenly stood up, pointed at the government representative and said angrily: "****, it is because of you people that Britain has become what it is now." ”

As he spoke, the opposition lawmaker took off his shoes in public and threw them at the government representatives.

The government representative hurriedly dodged, and although he didn't let the shoes hit his face, he let the shoes fall on his body.

The scene suddenly became a mess, and half of the opposition lawmakers were holding the buddy who had already picked up the other shoe in his hand, and half were explaining to the speaker. Government representatives, on the other hand, continued to protest to the Speaker after recovering from their composure.

Looking at the council hall below, which was almost indistinguishable from the vegetable market, I poked Flower with my elbow and was surprised: "Is this how your council is discussing?" Throw shoes at a disagreement? ”

Flower said angrily: "Fuck off your eggs." This is one of the few cases, and how do I know what the opposition MP is crazy about, even though I think it's a nice job. But it was a stupid decision, the guy was drunk, damn it. ”

Because of this sudden incident, the Speaker had to terminate the parliamentary discussion. I walked out of the parliament hall under the guidance of the guards, and when I reached the door of the parliament building, I was immersed in the dashing throw of opposition lawmakers.

Flower looked at me helplessly, "Are you smiling like that?" I've said it many times, it's not a normal situation, it's an emergency! Emergencies! The processes that precede the throwing of the shoes by that MP are normal parliamentary discussions. ”

I shrugged my shoulders and wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes, "Okay, okay, looks like I've got some luck today, maybe I should buy a lottery ticket later." But to be honest, the parliamentary discussions were really exciting, and I was impressed by the fact that both sides were still able to behave elegantly and decently in the face of gunpowder. ”

Flower immediately gasped, raised his chin and said proudly: "That's, after all, they are all elected to represent British democracy." Upbringing is the most basic element. ”

I nodded, not refuting Flower's words.

After talking to Wang Xiaorui on the phone last night, I went to check the British system and found that the system in this country is very interesting, even if it is the highest level of government, the distance between it and the people is by no means far.

In the United Kingdom, it is very easy for British people to enter the Parliament, as long as they are British citizens, they can enter the British Parliament to observe or participate in their discussions. Even if you want to debate with the Prime Minister, it's easy to get in touch with your local councillor and he'll help you get a ticket to a debate on a topic you care about. If you are a foreigner, or if you haven't made an appointment with your local councillor beforehand, you can also enter and queue up outside the British Parliament, just like I did with Flower and I today.

But this system is not perfect, and it often leads to some strange phenomena, such as the deformed welfare system, the British government is in a very awkward position now, and has no money but has to take out a lot of money every month to pay benefits, a bit like no money still has to slap a swollen face and become fat.

There are probably three reasons for this phenomenon: first, the welfare expenditure remains high and the government is overburdened; second, the pressure from the aging population, which makes social welfare expenditure increasingly huge; Third, the high unemployment rate has reduced the government's sources of tax revenue. To sum up, it is four words: making ends meet.

And the most embarrassing thing is that the status quo of this somewhat deformed welfare system cannot be changed for a while, because once this is done or this kind of news is released, it usually triggers demonstrations if there is a disagreement, protests when there is a disagreement, and so on.
