The Papers
Also known as the gutter press, the papers present the viewpoints of various segments of society, and give MPs an opportunity to write directly to them.

Speeches

The Speaker's Chair
"Order!" The Speaker's chair is where Members will take their Oath of Allegiance, raise Points of Order, and listen attentively to what the Speaker has to say.

Question Time
The most publicly-viewed, and least productive, part of the Parliamentarian's day when Ministers of the Crown are brought in front of the opposition and summarily raked over the coals. Of course, nothing is ever really asked and nothing is ever really answered, but it makes for good theatre.

First Reading
The First Reading, where legislation is briefly introduced to the House, before debate begins.

Second and Third Reading
Where the bills which wish to become law are first debated and discussed before they head to division.

Division
"Division! Clear the lobby!"

The House of Lords
Bow, bow, ye lower middle classes! Bow, bow, ye tradesmen! Bow, ye masses! Blow the trumpets, bang the brasses! We are peers of highest station; paragons of legislation; pillars of the British nation
