Heckling in the Commons
Nigel Farage, the leader of Reform UK, faced repeated heckling while proposing withdrawal from the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) in the Commons.
Children, be quiet!
Farage retorted, attempting to quieten the backbenchers. He argued that the ECHR is "unfinished business" and that "Brexit cannot be completed while we're subject to a foreign court".
- The Labour and Conservative benches were largely empty during his speech.
- Liberal Democrats and other opposition MPs attended, primarily to heckle Farage.
- Some MPs pointed out Farage's past promises, including his 2017 statement that he would leave the UK if EU withdrawal was a disaster.
Farage's attempt to quieten the chamber was met with laughter and surprise.
