Point of Order

Nigel Evans Excerpts

Monday 10th February 2020 Commons Chamber

[Abena Oppong-Asare (Erith and Thamesmead) (Lab)]

On a point of order, Mr Deputy Speaker. It has come to my attention that I have again been mistaken for another black MP—this time on parliamentary TV. My name is Abena Oppong-Asare. I would like to know what you are going to do about this, because it is unacceptable.

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Nigel Evans)]

I think the hon. Lady has made her point, quite rightly, and I am sure that broadcasters and others will take note. I hope that they will pay a lot more attention and ensure that people are properly identified in this House. I thank her very much for her point of order; I appreciate it.
