Reform UK's Nigel Farage says his prayer card, which MPs leave on seats to reserve them, was removed on Wednesday. He claims he was involved in a physical altercation with an MP during the parliamentary state opening on 13 May. The Commons says the card lacked a valid date stamp, and Farage called the Budget "a retail Budget aimed at an early general election".
