PMQs Today Without The Shouting: 11 March 2015

Prime Minister David Cameron speaks during Prime Minister's Questions in the House of Commons, London.

PMQs again. Time for lots of shouting and arguing broadcast live from the House of Commons. We extracted all the good bits for your pleasure.

Ed Miliband led with a televised debate about the televised debates:

Is @Ed_Miliband really leading with the debates? Talk about flogging a dead horse! #PMQs

This is so meta. #PMQs #bbcdp #DebatesDebate

And used all of his allotted time on it:

What a waste of questions by the opposition leader #PMQs
— Craig Lawton (@CraigIawton) March 11, 2015

Rather than debating about debates, why don't they actually talk about something useful #PMQs

Pointless questioning at #PMQs by Ed Milliband.

Cameron just echoed his most recent election poster:

"Crawling to power in Alex Salmond's pocket." With mixed metaphors like that Cameron would make a good newspaper columnist #pmqs

Someone needs to remind the PM that Alex Salmond is no longer SNP leader #pmqs

Miliband and Cameron were calling each other mean names:

This is vicious. Character attacks aplenty. Cameron; Miliband "weak and despicable." Miliband retorts "chicken" and a "useless PM." #pmqs

"Like all bullies". No personal insults from @Ed_Miliband of course. #PMQs

Cam is a 'bully', Miliband is 'despicable', playground insults dominating #PMQs

Cameron accused Labour of attempting to "crawl into Parliament without a majority" by piggy-backing on the SNP's popularity:

Ukip defector Douglas Carswell spoke up, and nobody was happy about it:

Groans all round when Douglas Carswell addresses the house #PMQs

Faux pas? @daily_politics @afneil #PMQs pic.twitter.com/Qapwiwx8lH

But mostly PMQs was the same as always:

"Will the Prime Minister join me in congratulating him on what a brilliant job he's doing?" #PMQs
— Daniel Rosney (@DanielRosney) March 11, 2015

Newcastle MP: 'NHS is buggered in Newcastle, Dave'
Cameron: 'Yeah, but it's alright in Staffordshire, so...'
