SNP Leader Stephen Flynn: Hoyle Should Not Continue as Speaker

Sir Lindsay Hoyle has been under fire following an evening of chaos in the House of Commons on Wednesday. The incident occurred during a debate on the Gaza conflict. Hoyle has apologized for the disruption but insisted that the safety of MPs was his primary concern.

Hoyle Frontrunner for Speaker Role

Hoyle, a Labour MP, was considered the frontrunner to become Speaker in 2019. He embodies the British constitution and has a long history of service in Westminster.

Calls for Resignation

However, after the events of Wednesday, several MPs are now calling for Hoyle to resign. The SNP's Westminster leader, Stephen Flynn, has stated that Hoyle should not continue in his role.

Chaos in the House

The disruption in the House of Commons stemmed from a dispute over whether to hold a debate on the Gaza conflict. Some MPs argued that the debate was not urgent, while others insisted that it was a matter of great importance.

Hoyle's Apology

Hoyle apologized to MPs for the chaos and acknowledged that the events were "regrettable." He also stated that he would be considering the concerns raised by MPs and would make any necessary changes to ensure that such a situation does not occur again.
