Tensions exploded in the House of Commons after Reform UK MP Danny Kruger directly confronted Muslim MPs during a heated exchange over a controversial police decision — shouting “Be ashamed!” as frustration boiled over in the chamber.

Kruger accused several MPs, including some from the Labour benches, of leading what he called a “political campaign” that pressured police into changing their original decision regarding a high-profile public event. Speaking with anger and disbelief, he said, “What has happened is that a political campaign, I’m ashamed to say, led by members of this House, has caused the police to change their decision, to change their calculation.”

He went on to say that the government was “talking a good game” but doing little in reality. Addressing the Culture Secretary, Kruger claimed she was simply “asking the police politely” to reconsider their decision rather than taking firm action. “Does the government not recognize that under the 1996 Police Act, it does have the power to direct police forces to make certain decisions — and if necessary, to dismiss the chief constable?” he demanded.

Kruger urged ministers to clarify the law so the government could intervene in situations like this in the future. His fiery remarks were met with loud reactions from both sides of the chamber, as he appeared to glare toward a group of Muslim MPs who had earlier voiced concerns about the event’s potential safety risks.

The Culture Secretary, maintaining a composed tone, fired back by reminding the Commons that police independence is a long-standing principle of British law. “There is a long-established principle in this country, as set out in law, that the police are operationally independent,” she said. “I’m surprised to hear the honorable gentleman seek to question that.”

She added, “The risk assessment and the decisions around safety — and what would be needed for this game to go ahead safely with all fans present — is for the police to decide. The right and proper role for the government is to support them, not to overrule them.”

Despite her calm response, Kruger refused to back down, shaking his head as he muttered that the government was being “too weak” and “too afraid” to challenge pressure groups. His comments appeared to be directed at MPs who had previously supported postponing or restricting certain matches or events involving Israeli teams, citing public safety concerns.

The moment quickly went viral online, with clips showing Kruger’s sharp tone and the visible discomfort among some MPs as he delivered his remarks. Supporters praised him for “speaking hard truths” and standing up for fairness, while critics accused him of targeting Muslim MPs and stoking division in an already tense debate.

Social media reactions were mixed — some described his outburst as “refreshing honesty,” while others said it was “embarrassing and inflammatory.” One viewer wrote, “It’s one thing to question government policy, but shouting ‘be ashamed’ at fellow MPs crosses a line.”

The debate highlights growing friction in Parliament over how much influence political campaigns and MPs should have on policing decisions — particularly in emotionally charged cases related to protests, international conflicts, or community tensions.

As the Deputy Speaker called for order, Kruger sat back down still visibly agitated. The chamber remained noisy, reflecting how deeply divided MPs remain over issues of policing, protest, and political accountability.

What was supposed to be a discussion on police powers ended up as yet another dramatic Commons showdown — one that exposed the widening gap between MPs calling for stronger government authority and those warning against political interference in policing.
