Lee Anderson hails Kemi Badenoch exposing Sky host’s ‘outrageous’ claim

Tory MPs have rounded on Sky presenter Jayne Secker, who alleged during a row with Kemi Badenoch that poor Brits would have been unaffected by the ban on new petrol and diesel cars in 2030 as they ‘don’t drive in this country’. Ms Badenoch immediately slammed the presenter, accusing her of making a ‘ludicrous statement’. She said: ‘If you step outside of London – come to my constituency – you will find the poorest in society drive because they live in a rural area. ‘What you said is actually quite astonishing!’ The Business Secretary added: ‘People who live in cities will be able to deal with this in a way that is quite different from people who live in towns and rural areas.’
