Tory minister Johnny Mercer has compared new 25-year-old Labour MP Keir Mather to a character from cult Channel 4 comedy The Inbetweeners.
The minister for Veterans’ Affairs and Conservative said Mr Mather had been “dropped into” the Selby and Ainsty constituency and “spouted identikit Keir Starmer lines”, after earlier stating: “We don’t want parliament to become like the Inbetweeners.”
