The clear message; an attention-seeking buffoon in the eyes of 99% of the population.

Parliament is described to political science students as a talking shop. The underlying proposition is to debate policies, not show off.

Few leave with a publicly respected legacy. It’s a musical chairs scenario that on my observation is largely destructive of too many participants’ lives.
