Abstract

This article deals with the peculiarities of the emotiveness in the UK parliamentary debates as a type of the political discourse. It points out the specific features of the British parliamentary debates, such as spontaneity and not a make-ahead character of the presented speeches. These features influence the high level of emotiveness in the communicants’ reactions. It also analyses emotive interjections of the debates’ participants during the meetings of the UK House of Commons in the post-Thatcher period.
