The UK Parliament brawl: A case study of increased in global Political and Ideological intolerance


The UK Parliament brawl: A case study of increased in global Political and Ideological intolerance


 


I am shocked beyond words that this kind of ugliness can take place in the United Kingdom Parliament.
UKIP lawmaker quits leadership bid after 'altercation' lands him in hospital
A UK right wing lawmaker who wound up sprawled unconscious on the floor of the European Parliament after announcing his intention to run for his party's leadership has resigned. "It is with deep sorrow and regret that I am aborting my leadership campaign and announcing my resignation from UKIP with immediate effect," UKIP's Steven Woolfe said in a statement posted Monday on his website

Reflection:

This kind of situations is most reportable and describable of embryonic democracy especially in the developing countries of the world! By implication not even the politicians in the developed part of the world are immune to such act of barbarism. It is therefore very regrettable to say the least, when countries that have seasoned democratic norms and practices engaged in such an archaic fashion.

This should be a learning period for all mankind that extremism does not have any limit and what is most needed and based on mutual respect for the divergence that permeates our world is understanding, compassion and pragmatism, fear of God, empathy and the willingness to accommodates other peoples perspective without resorting to violence.

I am happy Mr. Woolfe turned in his resignation, nevertheless the did has been done and once more we are witness to yet another fabricated emotion based on dogmatism and mediocrity! What a shame indeed! It suffices to say without question that the attitude of these parliamentarians classically displayed the barbarism that is enshrined in the mentality of the myopic! They are acting like little excited white monkeys.
