There are also assemblies, one in London, Cardiff, Northeren Ireland and one in Belfast, Wales. There are 129 members of the Scottish parliament, in 1999 the Scottish parliament was built and ready but people werent aloud to work in it until 2004! The greens party has only got 2 msp’s. Theres more people in London than the whole of Scotland!
Power vote consoles.
After p5/20 got to vote using power vote consoles, these are very precious to the parliament and they were very very lucky to use them! Mrs Young would make it live on the laptop and they had to press the number that they thought the answer was and then at the end it would show the number of votes beside it. They were amazed on how cool they were!
New leaders.
P5/20 got into their parties that they had already had in class time, they needed a new leader to lead the group so the groups had to vote for their new leader, p5/20 had great fun doing that.
Party names and manifestos.
Now moving on to the names and manifestos. There were six parties that needed six new names these names were the school party, sporty, music, animal wealthcare, saving the Earth and the computer party. Each group got stickers, a manidesto and the leader got a rosette. The rosette was purple and it had the logo of the party on it, the other members had a sticker with the logo on it. They also had a manifesto which is where you keep all your work, but in this case we needed it because there was a post it on the back that we needed to write on, we wrote why you should vote for us to be the best party.
Best party
All the parties had to make a speach on why they should be voteed the best party. In end the Sports party won and the music party came 2nd. everyone tried really hard and they all had an amazing tiem writing and the leaders had a brilliant time competing against the other leaders.
