@calestous Embarrassing yes, mind, several inaccuracies & far from a level representation of what happened. I'd watch the footage first...
@AmandaJaneWilde There are many views on the topic. Parliamentary brawls are being reported more often. I follow them closely.
@calestous Still, worth watching the footage in full for yourself...
@AmandaJaneWilde I watched it. I didn't write the article by the way.
@AmandaJaneWilde It is not the first episode there either. And not the last I am sure.
@calestous It's not - but you will have noticed, everyone was expecting this one & there were significant preparations accordingly...
@AmandaJaneWilde Yes. Complete with jamming of mobile communication.
