Let’s table that discussion.

Tap for spoiler

The meanings of “table” as a verb in US vs UK parliamentary usage are literally opposites. With the US meaning being to stop discussing or put aside for later, while the UK version means to begin discussing. This actually caused confusion during allied meetings in WWII.
