Abstract

To what extent is Prime Minister’s Questions time used by the PM to ask questions of the opposition? Mark Shephard and Daniel Braby compare weighted data for four PMs and find that questioning of the opposition has increased over time, it varies by inter- versus intra-government PM rotations, and is positively associated with approval ratings.
