This is disgusting...
The context is that the top one is MPs debating the effect of a bill which has already been passed, and which there is no way the current government is going to repeal. So arguably what's the point of debating it, even if you're utterly opposed to it. Better to concentrate your efforts on getting the Tories out at the next election so Labour or a Lib/Lab coalition can get in, then turn up to a debate on it when the opportunity for change is actually on the table.
The bottom picture was a debate on something which is a free vote and was very much up for grabs at the time. Part of the reason it was so controversial was that a lot of MPs thought the last thing they should be getting in the current climate of austerity was a pay rise.
It does still make a valid point but it's pretty simplistic.

Uniformed but unidentified armed forces have occupied 2 airports in eastern Ukraine (1 civilian, 1 military).
Smells of Russia trying to instigate a split, especially since they're writing legislation to make it easier for states to incorporate into Russia.

Ukraine's interior Minister has said they are Russian naval troops, they also put up the flag of Russian naval troops. Russia is denying they are Russian troops.
A man called Vladimir told Reuters he was a volunteer helping the group there, though he said he did not know where they came from.
"I'm with the People's Militia of Crimea. We're simple people, volunteers," he said.
Simple people with army trucks and machine guns. OK.
If they are militia, where are they getting the kit from?

I'm with the Crimean People's Militia.

Trucks also have Russian numberplates. Bit of a giveaway that.
Yanukovych doing a presser at the moment saying he was not overthrown, he was 'compelled to leave'. Saying there should be an investigation into the violence - too right, who authorised those snipers, huh?
Funnily enough not calling for an investigation into how his private zoo was funded, or his multiple palaces.
How he has the temerity to stand there and say this stuff is beyond me...

^ get that stuff at the local market. Hell I almost bought a USSR space suit.Only problem was the helmet,too big for my bag.So i settle for a few hip flasks.
Looks like the IMF going to do a Greece and turn Ukraine into a dept slave.
