PMQs Erupts: Starmer and Badenoch Clash Over Defence, Energy, and Speaker Showdown
Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs) saw heated exchanges between Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch, with major rows over defence spending and North Sea energy policy.
Starmer faced criticism for allegedly dodging questions about military funding and was repeatedly admonished by Commons Speaker Lindsay Hoyle for not providing direct answers. Badenoch accused Starmer of making a 'U-turn' on Iran and attacked Labour's stance on energy, calling for more North Sea drilling. The session descended into chaos, with Starmer visibly furious and engaging in a tense confrontation with the Speaker after being rebuked.
The lively PMQs highlighted deep divisions over national security, economic policy, and parliamentary conduct.
