Cameron will not apologise for “Calm down, dear” incident (video)
David Cameron is accused of sexism after telling a a female Labour MP to “calm down, dear” several times during a House of Commons debate. Shadow chief secretary to the Treasury Angela Eagle wanted to intervene in a presentation by the Prime Minister, but the Tory leader brushed her off with several calls for her to calm down.
The exchange eventually had to be ended by the Speaker of the House, with vociferous calls from the Labour side for Mr Cameron to apologise. Check out the video below for a recording of the event.
