It seems to be some reference to this, although I can't find anything about sacks and snakes. As stated by u/stovetop only the rich were in parliament, so if this did happen it was just one group of rich greedy people turning on another group of rich greedy people. Nothing to get excited about.
Sounds better than what we currently have:
Groups of poor desperate people turning on other groups of poor desperate people.
