Prorogueing parliament was a trick to get them to vote on May’s deal again. There was also a plan to dissolve Parliament until April 12th to guarantee No Deal that was put forth by some Tory MP.

Considering how much better looking Poles are compared to the average Britisher, they should be thankful for them.

So when hard Brexit happens will you need a passport to go from Northern Ireland to Ireland ? Will goods be stopped at the border for customs etc?

Both the British and Irish governments have published assurances that the common travel area between the countries will continue in the event of a hard brexit. How that works exactly is... unclear

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mace_of_the_United_States_House_of_Representatives

In accordance with the House Rules, on the rare occasion that a member becomes unruly, the Sergeant at Arms, upon order of the Speaker, lifts the mace from its pedestal and presents it before the offenders, thereby restoring order. House rules state that in Members should be arrested when ignoring the authority of the Mace

There have been at least six instances where the Mace was used to quell disorder.

A threat to present the mace was on July 29, 1994, when Rep. Maxine Waters declined to stop speaking. The Speaker Pro Tem, Rep. Carrie Meek, threatened "to present the mace"; Waters left the floor shortly thereafter, and Meek said that she had been about to order the sergeant-at-arms to present it.[8][9]
