I can, its called the Supply and Confidence Agreement.
That didn’t save the last speaker. And it’s immaterial to the confidence the house has in the Speaker.
All correct.
International gaffe vs Parliamentary impartiality. The last Speaker took the fall for the PM, the current one is working well to move the agenda along.
It is when removal of the Speaker is put to a vote, as was the situation with the CPC motion to remove Fergus.
As I recall the old WP countries and others also installed puppets like this one.

Meanwhile, the 'happiness gap' is astronomical
Ranked: Countries Where Youth are the Most Unhappy, Relative to Older Generations
Conventional wisdom says, and data somewhat correlates, that young adults (those below 30) tend to be the happiest demographic. Happiness then decreases through middle age and starts increasing around 60. However, the above countries are digressing from the pattern, with older generations being much happier than young adults.
That older generations are happier, by itself, is not a bad thing. However, that younger adults are so much unhappier in the same country can point to several unique stresses that those aged below 30 are facing.
For example, in the U.S. and Canada—both near the top of this list—many young adults feel like they have been priced out of owning a home: a once key metric of success.
Climate anxieties are also high, with worries about the future of the world they’ll inhabit. Finally, persistent economic inequities are also weighing on the younger generation, with many in that cohort feeling like they will never be able to afford to retire.
All of this comes alongside a rising loneliness epidemic, where those aged 18–25 report much higher rates of loneliness than the general population.

Given that they’ve been jerked around by a pandemic and housing issues and inflation….
They are young and have not had the benefit of the life experience we have had. AND I know our elders said similar things of us.
And where would they interact with peers that isn't already monetized/expensive?
Not everyone has the luxury of being a sociopath though.
Your virtue signalling sure helps.
What do you mean?
I have to ask, how is showing basic human empathy considered virtue signalling?
Out of curiosity, are your kids old enough yet for you to have had conversations about what they’re gonna do when they grow up and move out, and have to contend with these same pressures of finding good work that will pay for a reasonable standard of living?
To paraphrase Troy McClure: Be happy, stupid!
Dude - everyone is tied to their phones. Take a look around any public area and people aged 10-100 will be on their phones. This is not just a “younger generation” thing.
Yeah they do, because those are things. If you have a job, are totally rich, and live in a big house (or whatever you think is “perfect”) but work so much that you don’t see anyone, or your family/marriage life is utter crap, then damn right you’ll have depression and loneliness.
