A Tory sports minister has been mocked after she appeared to forget that Glasgow was the last UK city to host the Commonwealth games.
Nadine Dorries, a right-wing MP and Boris Johnson loyalist, was in Birmingham this morning to promote the opening of the 2022 sporting event which is being hosted in the West Midlands.
The UK Secretary of State for Sport told BBC News: "We've not had a sense of sporting occasion like this since the 2012 Olympics".
