An American friend of mine commented that he envied our parliamentary system of government because of Question Time. I noted that most questions are just someone from the same party going, "could the Minister for Industry tell us about the excellent work the government is doing to assist steelworks?" and the Minister stands up and buttons his jacket, "Why yes, I can praise myself for ten minutes straight, certainly." That's not all of Question Time, but most of it.
My friend responded, "It would be good to see members of the government subjected to derisive laughter from time to time." It's one advantage of having the executive directly responsible to and members of the legislative branch. Derisive laughter is good for members of government, it keeps them in their place.
Question Time has lots of interjections for "Point of Order, Mr Speaker" and all that. And then the minister has to sit the fck down and shut the fck up while that is sorted out. On discussion, we agreed it was also good for members of the government to have to sit the fck down and shut the fck up from time to time, too.
He made those comments during the Obama administration, I don't see why it wouldn't apply now, though. If not Congress, the UN General Assembly will have to do, I suppose.
