GOP disapproval: When she introduced the motion, lawmakers on both sides booed Greene.

If I remember correctly, that's a violation of House procedure -- that's actually a big difference between the House of Representatives in the US (a lot of decorum restrictions) and the House of Commons in the UK, where this is permitted and common.

Those rules can change, but I'd be surprised if they had.

Hissing and jeering is not proper decorum in the House (May 21, 1998, p. 10282).

I love seeing clips from the House of Commons. They scream/boo/jeer constantly

I used to regularly watch Prime Minister's Questions on C-Span back when I had cable. Lots of fun.
