Gobbledegook in parliamentary debates

Use of indecent language can do much damage to our hard-earned democratic system.

The pattern of the ongoing parliamentary debates has struck me as a linguistic phenomenon. As a student of linguistics, especially of its pragmatic orientation, I am naturally drawn by the nature of the parlance used in Parliament. The linguistic side of such interactions has occupied the minds of people who watch the news and read the newspapers. The parliamentarians' choice of language and their frequent violations of the rules of interaction evoke some questions that are linguistic in nature.
