I've seen members of parliament walking down the street like a normal person on multiple occasions.

Unless you're a front bench minister, there's probably very little risk to your safety (for now, anyway).

Though, I suppose this is a natural outcome when you're the hegemonic power of the world, much more incentive to kill politicans there (the USA)

It's quite foreign to me though, luckily.
