YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Speaker Lindsay Hoyle is facing a fierce backlash after not picking Diane Abbott to speak at PMQs following alleged 'racist' comments made by major Tory donor, Frank Hester.

Ms Abbott appeared to stand up throughout the parliamentary session in the House of Commons to signify her intention to question Prime Minister Rishi Sunak but was never called upon by the Speaker.

LBC's political editor Natasha Clark joins Shelagh Fogarty to discuss this and how PMQs works.
