This week, Irish journalist and hero Amy O’Connor published a survey on an Extremely Important Issue:

“I was sitting at my desk, minding my own business, when it occurred to me that I didn’t know what any of our politicians thought of Beyoncé,” she wrote in Dublin’sDaily Edge.

So, she did what Bey would do and contacted every member of Ireland’s lower house (or Dáil Éireann). She asked them three simple questions:

YASSSSS QUEEN. Source: Beyonce.

The answers were extremely illuminating. Here are just a few:

Here atMamamia, we’ve decided it’s vital thateverycitizen also knows what their elected officials think of QB.

So we asked Australia’s MPs and senators whether they think Bey is bae, using the same three questions as O'Connor.

And in case you’re not yet convinced of why these answers matter, consider for a moment the traits Beyoncè has that a good government should have:

One: A good government is FIERCE.

Deux: A good government is HARD WORKING.

Three: A good government inspires enthusiasm for politics in its citizens. Beyonce is so good at this that her constituents are now posting many Bee emojis on Emma Watson’s Instagram account in the name of feminism (apparently).

So take your seats, dear readers, on the benches in the hallowed halls of parliament: IT’S QUESTION TIME.

"It's all the way with Bey! Her best song has to be the one that kicked off her solo career:Crazy in Love. She just smashed it with that song and has never looked back."

Terri Butler

"Of course, I love Beyoncé. It is difficult to choose my favourite of her songs.Crazy in Lovefor dancing, andFormationbecause it is a great feminist song."
