GB News presenter Jacob Rees-Mogg has weighed in on Labour's plans to crack down on MPs holding second jobs, particularly in broadcasting.

Speaking on his show, Jacob Rees-Mogg said: "That seems to me extremely sensible. And the crucial thing is that it is not a job. When I was first elected, people used to say to me, David Cameron is your boss.

"And I would always say, no, he isn't my boss or my bosses are the voters of North East Somerset. And the more you have these regulations, the more you make MPs, the employees of the House of Commons, rather than independent legislators representing their constituents."
