Question Time

February 24th the house of commons gathered for question time. It's when the Prime Minister is being questioned by the Government. Some of the topics that was brought to light during this Question Time was discussion about taxes. Will the prime minister increase or decrease them? I think this is an exciting topic. Someone in the discussion wondered if the taxation would be something like what Robin Hood did. That the rich people in the country will pay more taxes compared to people with not that much money.

At 12.33 pm the prime minister comes with a statement. He explains the child migration in the UK back in the days. How Britain deported many children to Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Zimbabwe. The children were lied to, some were told their parents were dead. They even changed the children's date of birth so that it would be impossible for the parents to find them.

During the question time the Prime Minister behaved calm and secure. Compared to the other speakers he spoke with a clear voice, and he answered the question very well.

  1. The question time is an opportunity for the rest of the MP's to ask questions to the government. The opposition uses this time to questions decisions made by the government and to criticize them. You mention some topics that came up in the debate, but I did expect you to write some more about the actual debate. Also the article about how they will be starting to televise debates before the election.
