‘TANDOORI TRAITORS’ CALLED OUT

LONDON: House of Commons speaker John Bercow and veteran Conservative MP Ken Clarke were dubbed ‘Tandoori traitors’ for meeting in an Indian restaurant and discussing a ‘plot’ to remain in the European Union.

Clarke is a known Remainer, while Bercow is accused by critics of being a closet Remainer after his recent decisions in the House were seen to go against the government. The two reportedly met in the ‘Kennington Tandoori’ in central London last week, when Bercow, according to the Sunday Express, asked Clarke: “Where do we go from here?” They ordered ‘poppadums, naan bread, lamb curry and beer’, and discussed Brexit.
