...ridiculous. I like the current speaker but I think he's wrong here.

[davebro]

He's wrong - the whole place has become a laughing stock.
(Commons & Lords)

[douglas9401]

Ridiculous, having a baby in the company of port-sodden, braying oafs can't be good for healthy development.

Mind you it might raise the level of debate a bit.

Can you imagine six or seven babies in the chamber? One starts yelling, then they all start? Well I suppose nothing changes!

[Hopkirk]

I don't see why I shouldn't have a baby with me when I'm driving my lorry.

[douglas9401]

I was just reminiscing about new mothers bring their issue in for all to ooh, ahh and generally go weak at the knees over.

The women were just as bad.

TTTLite ?

A good half of the Commons are full of children already
...........................The Tory half..,...

[anneasquith]

It would be a busy HOC if Boris brought his children to work .lol.

[fender62]

screaming sprogs... but say nowt don't want to upset the baby brigade
babys belong in a creche or at home, not in a debating chamber.
i magine nipple breaks...

There is no need to, they will have access to child care. All it is is attention seekers trying to prove a point.

[gulliver1]

Why Can't they leave their children in the care of Carrie, while they are in the Commons ...She is good at child minding She has to look after Boris.

[Peter Pedant]

I am not an MP

[Peter Pedant]

No child deserves - Carrie - not even Boris' kids

[Peter Pedant]

oh sozza, sozza
THAT carrie.....

[sanmac]

Taking babies into the H of C, Why not? Babies' diapers are usually full of ****, and so are MP's.

[Peter Pedant]

can we TRY to keep this thread serious please
this is a serious subject

[calmck]

Why can't the baby be kept in its mothers office and not brought into the chamber

[Gromit]

The HoC has a secure care park. Why can’t the sprog be stowed in the cars’ glovebox for 8 hours ? (Well no one else is answering the question seriously.

[Mozz71]

A commons full of dozing creatures who wake up crying when they're either hungry or have soiled themselves?

Sometimes these jokes write themselves.
