It's a sudden indictment of the state of this country that the Speaker of the House of Commons is having to make decisions out of fear

Lunatics inside and outside the asylum Today our elected representatives have spent hours debating a ceasefire in Gaza. The Daily Telegraph's Dominique Penna set out exactly what it is they're so fiercely opposed on.

"Parliament will vote tonight on SNP demands for an immediate ceasefire, while the government has tabled an amendment urging an immediate humanitarian pause and a Labour motion. As for a ceasefire that lasts and is observed by all sides."


But before the debate even got underway, the Labour Speaker, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, turned an already farcical situation into a downright pantomime. In an unprecedented move, Hoyle allowed an additional vote on the Labour amendment, saving his mate Keir Starmer from a rebellion.

However, the show must go on. Here they all are, taking their moment to grandstand while saying the exact same thing. You vote for this lot.

Well, you didn't vote on any of it today, did you? After all that, Leader of the House, Penny Mordaunt, announced that the Tories will boycott the vote.

Then the SNP led the Conservatives in a mass walk out from the chamber. This is absolute pandemonium. Meanwhile, by the way, they all got paid with your money today. Cue the Speaker returning to make a grovelling apology.

But why is this happening? What are the real reasons? Eh? Well, Mr. Hoyle let the cat out the bag, didn't he?

Just concerned about the safety of members of the House of Commons, is he? Oh, that's nice. What about us? He was concerned that politicians, particularly on the Labour benches, would have their security threatened by the pro Palestine mob.

That's why he wanted Labour MPs to be allowed to vote on their own amendment is it, so that they could appease the extremists running riots in their constituencies? Well, the pro Palestine movement has upended this country, dominated our political discourse ever since Hamas's unprovoked attack on October the 7th.

We've just had to put up with you on the streets, but these were the scenes outside parliament tonight ahead of the vote. I went down there myself to gauge the mood on the ground.

Now what you're about to see is a combination of some people engaging in wild conspiracy theories, borderline antisemitism, some making quite good humanitarian points, but also a heck of a lot of anger.

It's a sudden indictment of the state of this country that the Speaker of the House of Commons is having to make decisions out of fear. Yet again.

We won't address the main issue, will we? We will blame it on everything else. We now have mob rule in Britain today, some of whom are convinced that there was some kind of conspiracy theory taking place so that Israel could go on and commit a mass act of genocide.

And they're absolutely fine to say that from a group of people who don't disagree with them. Our parliament fell to the mob today, and this will get worse before it gets better. Extremists have won.
