Another round: Why Clive Lewis refused to swear an oath to the King
•
Labour's Clive Lewis was recalled to the House of Commons after refusing to swear an Oath of Allegiance to the British monarch, and their heirs and successors.
He was told under 19th Century legislation, he would be counted as "deceased" and a by-election would be held in his constituency to replace him if he failed to re-do his oath.
