And they're off!

Welcome, welcome. The session is upon us once again and the Hill is a bustle with MPs, media, and the usual carnival of parasites which accompany a session. There will be the usual highlights as MPs yell passing remarks at each other, there will be the rise and fall of governments, and most importantly there will be more media stories. To get you in the mood, let’s go over the morning’s highlights.
9:30 It’s time for the government to stand up and defend their baby. I would normally say this experience is worthwhile, but knowing SWAG they tend to lack any rational or logical abilities while speaking about themselves (see the PMs speech last night).
10:30 SO 31s and QP. Yep, everyone’s favourite house moments are during Statements by members and Question Period. Today will be particularly important as it will be the first time that we will get to see the ministers perform. We will also be able to judge the opposition’s wit.
11:30 The caucuses will meet and there will surely be some tension. As leaders and whips address their groups, the question of strategy and how to proceed will likely fall on deaf ears as MPs stomachs growl for lobbyist paid lunches.
