Conservative MP for Milton Keynes South, Iain Stewart, said: “One of the most powerful things that we can be is role models […] People who might be inspired to go into politics need to be able to see that there are people like them in Parliament…”
Bryant responded: “I hope to God nobody will ever think of me as a role model in relation to anything whatsoever at any time.”
The official Westminster transcript records him being interrupted and told “not to worry, because nobody does”.
Bryant replied: “That is very generous.”
