“Lib Dem MPs Charged with Lack of Respect During Westminster Prayers”

Read Time:1 Minute, 23 Second

A fight is getting worse at Westminster because new Liberal Democrat MPs are being accused of “fiddling with their phones” during prayers. This custom, which goes back to the 1600s, has MPs facing the wall while the Speaker’s Chaplain reads prayers. New claims, on the other hand, say that some Liberal Democrat MPs, including Sir Ed Davey, stay sitting and use their phones during the service.

Sir John Hayes, a senior Tory MP, was furious and said, “It’s hard to believe that even the Lib Dems would be so rude and disrespectful.” He also said that the party’s actions are “more crass than wicked.”

Angry, the Liberal Democrats said Hayes was “petty political point-scoring.” A spokesman for the party stressed that many of its MPs, such as Sir Ed Davey, are devout Christians. The spokesperson complained that the Conservative MP was trying to make a custom that goes back hundreds of years political.

Both the House of Commons and the House of Lords pray every day. This custom is thought to have started in 1558. It is customary for MPs and peers to face the wall during prayer. This is thought to have started because it is hard to kneel while carrying swords.

The prayers are based on the Christian faith, and MPs are free to say them or not. The public is not allowed to watch from the stands. The Liberal Democrats’ out-of-the-box behaviour has started a new discussion about whether these kinds of faith activities have a place in modern politics.
