Michael Gove came under fire as he attempted a Scouse accent on today's edition of BBC Breakfast.
The Levelling Up Secretary was interviewed by Dan Walker over the rising cost-of-living crisis. Labour criticised the Conservative party for not announcing more support packages in yesterday's Queen's Speech and urged the government to introduce an emergency budget to address the crisis.
There was confusion surrounding the Prime Minister's plan yesterday when Boris Johnson appeared to suggest more support would be revealed in "the days to come" before the Treasury ruled out short term financial measures. Mr Gove adopted a "bizarre" Scouse accent and referenced a 90s Harry Enfield sketch to defend the government's approach - as he suggested people should "calm down" over the financial crisis.
