Hysterical Labour MPs attempt to shout down Nigel Farage at PMQs as Reform UK leaves party 'panicking'

As he attempted to make his point, Labour MPs could be heard shouting over him.

Farage laughed at the "panic" he caused on "that side of the bench" causing yet another uproar from Labour.

Speaker, Lindsay Hoyle scolded the MPs and said: "Order. I want to get this question over with. It is all you're doing that it goes on forever."

Farage asked: "To ask the Prime Minister for some advice. What do I say to 25,000 constituents in Clacton..."

This caused MPs to shout over the Reform leader for the third time, leading to the Speaker scolding the Commons again.

Farage finally asked: "Prime Minister the 25,000 constituents, in fact, including including 99 year old Jim O'Dwyer, who flew a full set of missions on Lancaster bombers tail are losing their winter fuel allowance.

"They are feeling the pinch whilst at the same time we're prepared to give away a military base and pay £18 billion for the privilege of doing that."

The Prime Minister responded by saying: "The only panic is people using the NHS, who he wants to charge them for using it under his policy.

"What he should say to the people of Clacton when he finally finds them, is that they should vote Labour because we are stabilising the economy and boosting the growth."

Reports suggest Keir Starmer's Government is preparing to finalise the controversial agreement with Mauritius.

The Reform UK leader also asked a question about this to Foreign Office Minister Stephen Doughty.

Farage was told that "both sides" are committed to a deal on the islands.

Doughty said Britain was "committed to securing the long-term future of the base" and was "closely engaging with the US" - but warned that it would "not be appropriate to give a running commentary" on the negotiations.

He also confirmed that MPs will only get a chance to debate the deal and it will "of course" be presented to the commons.

Critics, including senior figures in the Trump administration, have cautioned that the handover could weaken Western influence in the Indian Ocean.

However, sources note that Mauritius is one of only two African nations not to have signed up to China's Belt and Road Initiative and maintains close ties to India.
