Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle has come under fire on Twitter after describing the Queen’s funeral as “the most important event the world will ever see”
.
“So let’s be clear, to hold a reception in the House of Commons when MPs and a peer has been sanctioned is not acceptable. My view remains the same and nothing has changed. Sir Lindsay later said: "It's been important to try and make sure we get it right and it's about showing the respect and the dignity and doing it in the right way. We should not allow anything to overshadow the most important event the world will ever see, and that's the funeral of Her Majesty and the passing of Her Majesty
Several Twitter users posted a video clip of Sir Lindsay speaking on the show. It sparked a backlash from social media users and also resulted in the Commons Speaker trending on Twitter. John Clare added: "Did Sir Lindsay Hoyle really refer to the Queen’s funeral as the most important event the world has ever seen? Have we descended even further into this insanity?"
