Watch as Reform UK MP Lee Anderson repeats the same “really simple” question six times to Energy Secretary Ed Miliband during a frosty showdown in the House of Commons.
After the insurgent party’s chief whip asked his initial question and the microphone leaves him, he can be heard in the distance repeating his initial query on six occasions as he demanded an answer from Miliband.
“The statement from the Energy Secretary sounded like a desperate attempt to save his own job”, he said.
“But he’s right. The British people do need saving. They need saving from the Energy Secretary.
PARLIAMENT
Ed Miliband told Anderson ‘just listen’
The Energy Secretary refused to give Anderson a number and instead spoke about the importance of Britain’s role in driving global efforts against climate change.
He said: “The answer, which he just does not want to accept is this, if he just listens.
“I believe in British leadership and Britain’s ability to make a difference. When we passed the Climate Change Act, 60 countries followed.
“When we legislated for net zero, many countries followed. He talks Britain down, I believe in Britain.”

Lee Anderson said Ed Miliband is guilty of ‘desperately’ attempting to save his job
A frustrated Anderson repeatedly interrupted as Miliband delivered his response, demanding a specific figure.
Miliband set out the findings of a study, led by the Met Office, that detailed how the UK was already hotter and wetter as a result of climate change.
The findings also said Britain faced a greater number of extreme weather events.
