In The Room | Silent discos, kickabouts – can MPs catch a break? | In The Room

With much of the country facing a long Easter weekend, it’s all the more difficult for MPs to give up. And when they do this, they may be slandered for it.

This week Keir Starmer was mocked for his 5-a-side skills, while Walthamstow’s Labor MP Stella Creasy came under fire for posting a clip of herself dancing at a silent disco.

Amid the Iran war and the deepening cost of living crisis in the US, Helen and Cleo discuss why it’s so hard for MPs to take a break and why it’s always a good idea to think before posting on social media.
