My speech in House of Commons on Boris Johnson lies and Committee ruling

Posted by on June 19, 2023

MPs are guardians of our democracy.

We must ensure the system is strengthened so those lying to Parliament aren't protected. We must demand transparency, honesty and integrity and remove from the Prime Ministers power to enforce the ministerial code and make the House guardians of the code.

Following the debate I also spoke to Channel 4 News:

Today I joined @krishgm on @Channel4News to talk about about today's debate on the Privileges Committee report which rightly outs Boris Johnson as a liar.... two years after I was thrown out of Parliament for calling him one! The system is archaic and it has to change. pic.twitter.com/h7UGuFRtKM
