At 14:30 today (in less than 10 minutes’ time) a meeting of the Backbench Business Committee of the House of Commons is due to start. It’s the committee to which Philip Davies successfully applied to lead debates on men’s issues on International Men’s Day in 2015 (despite the infamous efforts of Jess Phillips MP, a committee member, to deny the application) and 2016, Jeremy Lefroy, another Conservative MP, will bid to lead the debate this year. You’ll be able to access proceedings through this link. We don’t know exactly when Jeremy Lefroy will be appearing.
Great to see Philip Davies there too as always. Nice moment at the start where the chairman acknowledged the famous 2015 Jess Philips incident!
