The downstairs, as well as the upstairs, are all a buzz.England got its first ever labour prime minister, Ramsay MacDonald.  Prime Ministers are referred to as PMs, which are different than MPs, or Members of Parliament. The Labour Party is Britain's democratic socialist party.  It grew out of trade union movement, hence why the servants at Downton believe that Mr. MacDonald will be their voice. He was known as quite an orator.
