DECEMBER 26, 1422 Debate devolves to punch-up on Parliament floor PORT KINGSLEY — Tensions flared yesterday as a fistfight between MPs Jens Landrie and Martin Bron broke out on the floor of Parliament. MPs present at the fateful debate described chaos as Bron, MP for Seaport, accused Landrie, MP for Borgrund-Mikkelby, of lying about his parliamentary voting record. The two then exchanged words, with Bron calling Landrie a "bumbling bureaucrat" and describing his tenure as MP as "a waste of 2 years," after which the MPs then began to fight. Several other MPs were injured in attempting to separate the pair. PM Magdalene Borsch, who was present, condemned the incident in a press conference. "I am deeply concerned about the events I have witnessed today. It is my duty, and my fellow MPs' duties, to uphold our democracy, and a key part of doing that is respect for others. The actions of these two MPs fall far short of that standard and I unconditionally condemn their conduct." Speaker of the Parliament Patricia Stolling also condemned the incident. "This is absolutely unacceptable behavior in a democratic institution. We must conduct ourselves with dignity, and even if we disagree with others we must have respectful and civil discourse. I must hope we will not repeat this." Federal District Police (FDP) released a statement saying that they were investigating the fight, and that both MPs could face charges of grievous battery. When asked for comment, the Social Democratic Party, which Landrie is a member of, stated that it is also investigating but did not have further details. The Civic Alliance, of which Bron is a member, said there will be major disciplinary action taken against Bron.
