    Have you ever watched Prime Minister's Questions? Every Wednesday at 12:00 on BBC2, all the nation's MPs gather together to go "rrrrreeeeeeeerrrrr". Why? Is this a good thing? Let's watch a video all about it.
    P.S. This video might have gone out of date by the time you're watching it, cos there'll've been an election shortly after.
    Wow. There's a tense I don't often get to use. There'll've.

    In New Zealand, the government gets a list before the session of all the primary questions that will be asked and the minister they will be addressed to along with all the related supplementary questions that might be asked (the opposition parties only get to ask a limited number of supplementaries but get to prepare more than that), so it's somewhat of game where the shadow ministers begin with a vague question and have supplementaries that go all over the place while the government ministers try to anticipate what supplementaries will actually get asked so they can best prepare for them.
    The usual trick is to have the primary question be along the lines of "Does the Minister stand by their statements regarding X?" and then have a broad list of supplementaries that interrogate everything surrounding those statements. Usually, the government ministers just prepare more for the questions that think are more likely to be asked (the more embarrassing things), and less for the ones they think unlikely, though this can lead them to get caught out a bit if they guess wrong. Some politicians don't worry too much about what questions will be asked and just wing it, which is more impressive than a scripted answer but is usually a bit more jittery in its delivery.
    However, if the government minister can figure out what line of attack they're going to make, they can attempt to prepare an answer that pre-empts all the supplementaries that the shadow minister plans to ask, which makes the shadow minister look stupid because they either have to give up asking their supplementaries, pivot erratically into another line of attack, or keep asking the intended questions and get berated by the minster with "as I've already said in my previous answer". Our PM Jacinda Ardern, who has a coms degree, is actually very good at sussing out the questions coming her way and pre-empting them all, and after stating that she's already answered the question she turns her answer into a self-promotion or an attack against the Opposition. Judith Collins must be getting seriously sick of hearing "well like I said just before," or quips along the lines of "Had the Member actually listened to my previous answer, she'd know that... but I suppose we already knew from the Member's time in government that she isn't very good at listening to other people."

      Also worth noting that NZ MPs have a bit more freedom in how to express themselves. They are allowed to use each other's names, as long as it's done respectfully, and when they hear something they like, they're allowed to clap like a normal person. I believe in the last couple of years they have also been trialing some relaxation on the use of second person pronouns.

    • @nicolasg8091

      They’d do just fine, American Presidents are typically great public speakers. In fact a Presidential democracy which relies on the head of state’s charisma and electioneering would be way more selective for that compared to Parliamentary systems. Although Trump was a very different kind of speaker and Biden is past his prime.
      There’s a speech that Obama did to a Republican convention where basically all the questions were hostile and confrontational, and he did very well.

    • @ribbonsofnight
      @ribbonsofnight 2 ปีที่แล้ว +43

      I'd say Trump or Obama would have handled it just like they handled the rest of their presidencies. For example Trump would have handled it like he handled a hostile media when he wasn't shutting them out. I couldn't listen to Trump myself but I'd say off the cuff speaking in a way that made him popular with his base was one of his best skills.
      If Biden had to answer questions from opposing politicians it would answer a lot of the questions the republicans like asking.

    2:38 I briefly searched on more information about this rather entertaining question, and found that: One, this was a question during the Prime Minister's very first PMQ. Two, the question involved something very important to "national security", but was packed into a white-flash at 2:42. Three, the Prime Minister's answer involved a statement of gratitude to the opposition in addition to her own allies (Rather more complicated than just this, but explaining it further would spoil the moment).
    The reason of that man "sleeps at night" can be more agreeable than Jay suggests, although it might still fall short of what the populace would expect.

    If the prime minister recalls, that at the time after he became prime minister under the coalition and at the time when he was dividing the nation between strivers and scrounges, I asked him a very important question about the windfall he received when he wrote off the mortgage of the premises of notting hill and I said to him: he didn't write up the mortgage of the one the taxpayers were helping to pay for at oxford. I didnt received a proper answer then, MAYBE DODGY DAVE WILL ANSWER IT NOW!
