Ever wondered how other parliaments in other countries look from the inside?

Is there a special gene that makes our politicians a special mind of stupid? One look at the Lok Sabha channel, and we immediately get an idea of where Arnab Goswami picked up his debating skills.

Indian politicians hardly have the patience to dissuade themselves from frequent interruptions, disavowals, condemnations and mortal screaming. To expect them to exercise their wits, in case they had any, would be to expect something impossible.

This does not mean, however, that Parliaments all over the world suffer from this sorry fate. Looks like Britain is continuing in the wide and witty traditions ranging John Donne to PG Wodehouse even whilst rebuking their oppositions. Watch the video below to find out how satire, humour, and incisive wit can be made into a political weapon against your opponent!
