PMQs: Tory MP defects as ex-minister tells Johnson to go

PMQs: Tory MP defects as ex-minister tells Johnson to go

Boris Johnson faced a rowdy Commons, a day after he was accused of misleading MPs about parties.

Labour leader Keir Starmer pressed Johnson on if he was warned that a May 2020 drinks party risked breaking rules.

In a dramatic moment, Tory MP Christian Wakeford quit the Conservatives and walked across the floor to join Labour, as well as veteran Conservative and former minister David Davis telling the PM: "In the name of God, go"

Naga Munchetty also hears analysis and reaction from the BBC’s Deputy Political Editor Vicki Young and Newsnight Political Editor Nick Watt.

First broadcast at 12:00 on Naga Munchetty's BBC Radio 5 Live show on 19 January 2022.
