Two arrested over phone hidden in Commons to reportedly play sex noises during PMQs
Police believe device was deliberately planted near frontbench to disrupt proceedings, prompting heightened security in parliament
Police have arrested two men in connection with a mobile phone hidden in the House of Commons that was reportedly planted there to play sex noises during prime minister’s questions.
The phone was found near the frontbench during a routine sweep of the chamber. It is believed to have been intended to interrupt the keynote weekly showdown between Keir Starmer and Kemi Badenoch in September.
