Defence Secretary Ben Wallace Caught On Camera Suggesting Suspending Parliament Was Fuelled By Brexit

Wallace appeared to suggest Johnson’s motivation was the difficulty of having “no majority” in the Commons.

He was heard saying: “We’ve suddenly found ourselves with no majority and a coalition, and that’s not easy for our system.

“Parliament has been very good at saying what it doesn’t want, but it has been awful at saying what it wants. That’s the reality.

“So, you know, eventually any leader has to, you know, try. I don’t know what the outcome of it… You know, politics.”
