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. | :04:58. | :04:59. |
