Labour MPs Queue Early for PMQs
Labour MPs were buzzing with excitement as they eagerly awaited Sir Keir Starmer's first Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs). Some MPs were so keen that they started queuing outside the Commons Chamber at 7.15am to secure a prime seat for the event.
No Rows or Blows at the Commons
Despite the high anticipation, there were no heated arguments or dramatic confrontations during the session. The atmosphere remained cordial and civil throughout the exchange.
A Civilized Exchange
Instead of fiery debates and personal attacks, the discussion began on a positive note with Rishi Sunak praising the "cross-party consensus" on important issues like Ukraine. Sir Keir Starmer reciprocated the sentiment, emphasizing unity and cooperation across party lines.
A Tea Party, Not a Battle
Unlike the usual combative nature of PMQs, this session felt more like a friendly gathering than a political battlefield. With no character assassinations or aggressive rhetoric, some may have found the exchange to be disappointingly tame.
Looking Forward to More Excitement
While the first PMQs under Sir Keir Starmer's leadership was civil and amicable, many are hoping for more spirited debates and challenging questions in the future. Labour MPs are eager to see how the dynamics of PMQs evolve in the coming weeks.
