Tory Whips Kick Lee Anderson Off Home Affairs Committee
The Tory whips have decided it’s time up for Reform defector Lee Anderson on the Home Affairs Select Committee. Anderson is now getting kicked off by motion, as is the government’s prerogative, to be imminently replaced. Lee’s direct questioning has become a staple of otherwise dull Home Affairs committee meetings. No doubt problematic now he’s not batting for their side…
Anderson says:
“I would’ve liked to have stayed on the committee, but with the Home Office once again due to be scrutinised before it I’m probably the last person they want asking questions in the run up to an election.”
Other committee members acknowledge that Lee is a top performer and say “it’s sad to see him go“. End of an era…
