That is tradition in the House of Commons.
"Upon the passage of the motion, the speaker-elect is expected to show
reluctance at being chosen; he or she is customarily "dragged
unwillingly" by MPs to the speaker's bench. This custom has its roots
in the speaker's original function of communicating the Commons'
opinions to the monarch. Historically, the Speaker, representing the
House to the monarch, potentially faced the monarch's anger and
therefore required some persuasion to accept the post."
Post by Grikbaskar®ÂHe will be dragged on to a Tel Aviv bound El Al plane similarly.
Say that out loud in public in the vicinity of a police officer!
One sure-fire way of getting you in front of the beak.
