Butler Banished

 

Labour MP Dawn Butler has been ordered to leave the Commons chamber after she refused to withdraw accusations that Boris Johnson is a liar.

Ms Butler said the prime minister had "lied to the House and the country over and over again".

Under parliamentary rules, MPs are not allowed to accuse each other of lying in the House of Commons.

The acting Deputy Speaker asked the MP to withdraw her remarks but Ms Butler refused and was ordered to leave.

As parliament is in recess, it means that Butler will not receive any pay during this time.

 

Driving Ms Butler

 

Maybe the media would serve their audience better if, given that they seem to think a police vehicle stop is national news, they actually interviewed the driver of the car to garner his views rather than the passenger?
