Boris Johnson was berated for dodging the rules on parliamentary behaviour during bad-tempered scenes in PMQs today.Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle repeatedly clashed with Boris Johnson as the Prime Minister attempted to question Sir Keir Starmer about any links with Mishcon de Reya.Sir Lindsay told Mr Johnson: âI donât want to fall out about it, Iâve made it very clear â it is Prime Ministerâs Questions, itâs not for the Opposition to answer your questions.âWhether we like it or not those are the rules of the game that weâre all into and we play by the rules, donât we?
And we respect this House, so letâs respect the House.âAfter Mr Johnson attempted to ask again about the issue in a later exchange, the Speaker said: âPrime Minister, sit down.
Iâm not going to be challenged, you may be the Prime Minister of this country but in this House Iâm in charge.âMr Johnson later accused Sir Keir of âMish-conductâ, which prompted calls from the Labour benches for the comment to be withdrawn.The Speaker said: âI donât think this has done this House any good today.
Iâll be quite honest, I think itâs been ill-tempered, I think it shows the public that this House has not learnt from the other week, I need this House to gain respect but it starts by individuals showing respect for each other.âCredit: Parliamentlive.tv
