It's Wednesday and I'm Martin with today's top stories. There are

:00:07.:00:20.

children here today are observing our proceedings.

:00:21.:00:22.

Find out what happened when Newsround viewers went to

:00:23.:00:23.

Parliament. And the Kangaroo that has more than

:00:24.:00:27.

just a spring in its step. This is Newsround.

:00:28.:00:29.

First, to the politicians calling each other names. When leader of the

:00:30.:00:33.

opposition Ed Miliband called the Prime Minister a dunce -meaning

:00:34.:00:36.

stupid and Prime Minister David Cameron called Ed Miliband a muppet,

:00:37.:00:40.

it got loads of you talking. Today Aysha's been to Parliament in London

:00:41.:00:43.

to find out for herself what it's like to be in the middle of a big

:00:44.:00:58.

debate. They went behind-the-scenes of Prime Minister's Questions. The

:00:59.:01:03.

fact they without got a mention from the speaker, the man in charge of

:01:04.:01:12.

giving order. This session will be conducted in an orderly way, no

:01:13.:01:15.

matter how long it takes. I know there are children here today are

:01:16.:01:17.

observing proceedings and I would like to think that house would show

:01:18.:01:23.

a good example. Let's see if we can. He is jumping on this bandwagon

:01:24.:01:29.

after the circus has left town. He just does not get it, that is what.

:01:30.:01:38.

He has shown today. Ayshah's outside Parliament now, the place where it's

:01:39.:01:47.

all been happening. I have been with art to viewers. We were given

:01:48.:01:52.

special access before, during and after Prime Minister's Questions. It

:01:53.:01:58.

is smaller than I thought it was going to be but there was a

:01:59.:02:02.

passionate and fiery debate. Stella describe the atmosphere as intense.

:02:03.:02:08.

This is what happens when we caught up with two MPs in the Central lobby

:02:09.:02:11.

just after PMQs. What did you think when you are sitting watching what

:02:12.:02:17.

was happening? They were misbehaving but a bit better than last week. It

:02:18.:02:24.

was very intense, everybody shouting. What is the atmosphere

:02:25.:02:30.

like when you have two ass questions? When I was asking a

:02:31.:02:36.

question a couple of weeks ago, I was hit by the wall of noise. If you

:02:37.:02:41.

know what question you want to ask it can challenging. Can it be

:02:42.:02:51.

intimidating? It can be intimidating and if you are a humble backbencher

:02:52.:02:57.

like me and you have a local issue you want to raise, it is difficult

:02:58.:03:00.

coming up against that wall of noise. It was quite loud, what

:03:01.:03:05.

changes do you want the MPs to make? Listen to the people who are

:03:06.:03:09.

speaking because no one listened, they just wanted to get their

:03:10.:03:12.

opinion out there. Do you think that is a fair assessment last remark the

:03:13.:03:20.

speaker tries to keep order but it is very difficult. The Prime

:03:21.:03:26.

Minister said he wanted to end Punch and Judy politics, do you think he

:03:27.:03:33.

has cracked it? We are all responsible for this, people

:03:34.:03:37.

cheering in and watch it for the show. Is it about that performance

:03:38.:03:42.

or is it about genuinely trying to hold the Prime Minister to account?

:03:43.:03:50.

David Burrows and Jessica Morden there were the MPs. Our viewers got

:03:51.:03:55.

to chat to the speaker and the clerk, the people whose job it is to

:03:56.:04:01.

keep order in the House of Commons. We will have a full report tomorrow

:04:02.:04:03.

morning at 7:40am. Next up, he's only eight months old

:04:04.:04:07.

but Prince George has had his first Royal engagement in New Zealand. The

:04:08.:04:10.

Prince, along with his parents, met new mothers and fathers in

:04:11.:04:14.

Wellington. George met some other babies the same age as him and even

:04:15.:04:18.

had a little play. The visit is part of his parents three week tour of

:04:19.:04:21.

New Zealand and Australia. Now check out this robotic Kangaroo,

:04:22.:04:27.

made by a company in Germany. It jumps and acts just like a real

:04:28.:04:34.

Kangaroo. However the designers say it's not a toy and was built to show

:04:35.:04:38.

how the movement of animals can help build industrial machines.

:04:39.:04:41.

Now take a look at this. These pictures were taken at the edge of

:04:42.:04:46.

space from a camera attached to a balloon by a group of school

:04:47.:04:48.

children. The balloon popped when the pressure got too low and sent

:04:49.:04:51.

the camera floating back to earth. The experiment was carried out by

:04:52.:04:55.

the engineering club at Cedars Upper School who worked with Cambridge

:04:56.:04:57.

University to make the weather balloon.
