This is a British member of parliament we can be proud of. ❤️ 🇬🇧

This is Britishness....this is why I still love my country (just)
-
Amid all the hate spewed by those on the far left and far right - remember this is the core of what we are. Never get caught up in the vitriole.
-
This guy got some nerves, even cracks jokes. Love this guy
-
What a huge huge inspiration!!! I wish him and his wife and daughter the best and a long and happy life together
-
What a great guy. I cannot even begin to understand what he has been through, but what spirit!
-
Wholesome, human moments do hapen in parliament from time to time. Despite how cynical the political landscape has made us. Glad to hear about his good humour and health.
-
Wish this MP all the best, a warm hearted and brave man
-
They are still just clapping for the NHS
-
His dad is a friend of my dad. I have to be honest and say I never thought much of Craig before this as we’re poles apart politically. I’ve changed my mind though. The bloke has guts: huge respect.
-
Well deserved welcome to Craig. 👍
-
Well done Sir and well spoken.What an example to me to follow and for many to emulate.Best wishes.
-
Now that is true British spirit and resilience. He is a fantastic role model.
-
What an amazing person, God bless him, and thank goodness for his family, friends and the NHS who all helped him to pull through to get where he is today. His speech left me with a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye, very moving indeed ❤
-
What an incredible performance. Well Done that man.
-
I am speechless. It's so good to see what Parliament can be like and those actions which we never hear about.
-
1:50 this powerfully droll humour will be noted in Hansard, and thus enshrined in our legislative history; standing testament to this member's, and our nation's, great humour and resolve in the face of crisis ❤
-
What a star. MP with guts, not many of them about.
-
This deserves to go viral soon
-
They will clap for the NHS but they won’t give them a pay raise! I think all MP’s should have to rely on the NHS, no private care allowed, that way they’d take care of it!
