YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAfter 'farcical' scenes unfolded at the House of Commons as a result of Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle granting a vote on Labour's Gaza ceasefire motion, James O'Brien discusses the 'ridiculousness' of the situation.
SNP and Conservative MPs are furious at Hoyle for breaking with convention and, despite the Speaker's apology, more than 50 MPs have called for him to resign.
James argues that you can't 'blame Labour for trying,' only 'the Speaker for intervening' and highlights the hypocrisy from those who failed to call out Boris Johnson's unlawful proroguing of parliament.
