There's one good thing about the arrival of two-party politics in Japan. Forget wa (harmony) that's soooooo 2009.
The Japanese have gone all British.
What? Yapping about how cultured they are compared to the Yanks (but listening to shit music?) Nahhhh (well, a bit). Actually, the lawmakers (heretofore "tossers") have started heckling each other like naughty Eton schoolboys straight out of Latin class or something. In fact, they were getting themselves so worked up that the good citizens of Japan were somewhat miffed that they couldn't hear what was being said in the Japanese Diet for all the braying. Cripes!
The tossers are behaving like there is a difference between them! Brings a tear to the eye. Reminds one of the mother (of parliaments).

Needs more inbred aristocrats in the upper house IMO.
Quite.
Can't we set up some sort of exchange programme between the two parliaments?
The Japanese can have Patrica Hewitt and in return we get DPJ politician Renho.
(To make absolutely clear, I would be willing to swap the entire Labour front bench for Ms. Renho.)
