Closed petition End the heckling, jeering, and braying during Prime Minister's Questions.
Closed on
It's time to introduce some maturity to PMQs. MPs should remain quiet and attentive whenever someone is speaking rather than honking and shouting all the time like over-excited children. This is our Parliament, a place that steers the direction of the country, not a playground.
MPs braying and jeering during Prime Minister's Questions has degraded the entire tone of the event for too long. It's time MPs conducted themselves with discipline, maturity and seriousness during PMQs, listening to arguments and counter-arguments with respect. The Speaker should enforce civility, and MPs who are unable to act like adults should have to remove themselves from the chamber. This is a time of national emergency but at least the one positive outcome has been seriousness during PMQs
