It looks a lot like a real parliament question time except with a lot of shouting and heckling which, of course, would not be tolerated in a civilized country.

Question Time in the Australian Parliament is basically a thrown beer bottle away from a pub fight at any given moment.

I live in England and I still don't understand the use of the word cheeky. The first time I heard it used was when I was being slightly too handsy on a date. Then I started hearing "Oh, let's go get a cheeky pint" or something. I haven't yet been to a Nandos and I'll be disappointed if when I do finally go, none of the waitstaff try to cop a feel.

So the British parliament is basically a rap battle?

The best part is they can say anything. Well, you have to follow the rules of parliamentary procedure, but libel laws do not apply. You can not be sued for anything you say. So you can totally say, "Is it true the honorable minister raped and killed a girl in '96?" and all the other side can do is boo stomp their feet.

To be fair, that's statistically likely.

Yeah, the Shadow Chancellor's an unofficial position in the opposition - his/her job is to criticise the chancellor's policies and coming up with alternatives, "shadowing" them by studying their policies closely, debating them in the commons and watching them closely outside it. Watching and waiting. From the halls and offices of the commons to the residence at 11 Downing Street to the seldom visited streets of his constituency, nowhere does the Chancellor go unwatched, unheard. He tires, seeing the world through the haze of meetings and debates and business lunches and endless, endless reams of paper. The last cup of coffee kicks in and becomes the one too many. It's late. He loosens his tie, ducks down the back stairs without a nod to the security detail, out the back door for a quick smoke in the dark. No-one can see him now, with his jacket off and patches of sweat stretching halfway down his sides, gut over his belt.

The Shadow Chancellor sees.

A fox howls in the distance, the last taxi of the evening swoops past. The birds awake early this morning. A new tie will be mounted over the fireplace in Labour Party HQ. A rug will be made from a new hide, one with a distinctive pattern - Marks and Spencers' two-piece, Autograph collection Spring 2013. 46 inch chest. Almost unmarked. The job was done well.
