ed's first prime minister's questions

Ed Miliband recently won Labour's leadership contest and has since selected his shadow cabinet. In the UK, the Prime Minister will spend half an hour every Wednesday morning to answer questions from Members of Parliaments (MPs). This is called the Prime Minister's Questions (PMQ).


And today was Ed Miliband's first PMQ and it was entertaining to watch. Although they did criticise each other, it was done in a respectful way. Plus, the speaker is fair to both sides. Note that non-UK viewers may not be able to watch the two videos, but for those who can, enjoy!



If you can't watch the videos and are desperate to know what happened, you can read a long and boring commentary at this link.
