Rejected petition Put an end immaturity in government debates.

I wish to bring to the attention of government officials the opinions of the general public on the way these debates are run. Talking over the person presenting, jeering and laughing are all things that are not tolerated in a classroom debate and yet can be seen in government debates.

This clip of Jeremy Corbyn being mocked by conservative MPs is just one recent televised example of immaturity in government debates. This is an ongoing issue that has existed far too long. As MPs, you have the responsibility to do what is right for the future of the UK and instead you are acting like poorly raised children. Our country is not a pantomime for politicians to jeer and mock and we are sick of it being treated as though it is.
