Lindsay Hoyle addresses MPs in the Royal Gallery during a visit of South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol to the Palace of Westminster in central London on November 21, 2023, on the first day of a three-day state visit to the UK. South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol and First Lady Kim Keon Hee began a three-day trip to the UK on Tuesday, with King Charles III's hosting his first state visitors since his coronation.
Hoyle eventually re-appeared in the Commons chamber to apologise for what had happened, insisting he had taken the unusual step in an attempt to protect MPs from a backlash by pro-Palestine campaigners.He said: “It was my wish to do the best by every member of this House ... because I am very, very concerned about the security of all members.”
“I will reflect on my part,” he said. “I recommit myself that all members of this House are treated fairly. I do not want it to have ended like this.”
