He was everyone's equal

Mark Francois and Andrew Rosindell pay tribute to their fellow Conservative MP and much-loved friend, Sir David Amess, following his tragic death. But should MPs' security be ramped up? Mr Francois tells our podcast co-hosts, Allison Pearson and Liam Halligan why overly zealous measures risk "letting the bad guys win", while Mr Rosindell asks why his friend never held ministerial office. Also on the podcast: with COP26 on the horizon, cold showers are in and they get an even colder response from Ms Pearson. The irony of holding a climate change summit held amid a global energy crisis isn’t lost on our co-pilot as Allison declares the Prime Minister’s latest energy plans an act of virtue signalling, while Liam encourages a smarter approach to renewable energy. And there’s a revelatory update from our NHS insider, George in the light of the recent spike in Covid infections. Allison will be replying to comments beneath this article on Thursday 21st of October 11am-12pm: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2021/10/20/best-us-paying-tribute-sir-david-amess/ | Read more from Allison: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/allison-pearson/ | Read more from Liam: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/liam-halligan/ | Listen to Bed of Lies: www.playpodca.st/bedoflies | Need help subscribing or reviewing?
