Lee Anderson erupted after Nigel Farage was heckled by MPs during PMQs. Raising a point of order in the Commons, the Reform UK MP said: “During PMQs today the honourable member for Clacton asked what I thought was quite a reasonable question.

“But during PMQs I couldn’t hear a single word and I’m sure people in this chamber couldn’t because people like the honourable member for Dewsbury behind me never shut up all the way through. We do not subscribe to this sort of dog whistle politics in Reform UK so Mr Speaker could you please give us advice how to stop this behaviour in the future?”

His intervention comes after the Reform UK leader faced calls from MPs as he attempted to ask a question about immigration and Brexit during PMQs.

The Clacton MP began by saying “people voted for Brexit” but he was disrupted by an MP shouting “because they were lied to”.

The arch-Brexiteer went on to say that Britons want to stop illegal migration.

He said: “Does the PM understand that demand today is even greater than it was in 2016?”

Sir Keir answered: “His proposal, for 10 years, wagging the Tory dog, has been to break everything and claim that’s how you fix things, to stick two fingers up at your neighbours and then expect them to work with us. And he votes against the borders bill, which gives more powers to our law enforcement.”
