Нелегкий депутатский хлеб, и кто из парламентариев полетит в космос Valentina Tereshkova I tried to contact few weeks before her birthday (on March 6, the world’s first female astronaut, was 80 years old), but all in vain.

    Started to worry about her health, but last Saturday the phone rang and I heard a cheerful voice Valentina Vladimirovna: “Andrew, I’m in Yaroslavl, the guys say hi”.

    It turned out, his output Tereshkova holds in the sponsored orphanage. Since the end of last year, I wonder why in “Let them talk” began to come few deputies, previously, because of lack of them was not. Blame the new regulations introduced by the speaker of the state Duma of the seventh convocation Vyacheslav Volodin. Now all MPs are required by 9 a.m. to be in place and to combine work in the committees with the plenary.

    There can be no talk in the TV Studio. And this year could be reduced even summer parliamentary recess. But, it seems that Valentina Tereshkova is not worried. At the exhibition organized in her honour, she asked her colleagues at the Okhotny Ryad to join the cosmonaut corps. Apparently decided that the present regulations will lead many in enviable shape.
