‘I feel like everybody slightly got the wrong end of the stick,’ Ben said. ‘A lot of people seemed to be up in arms that you were defending watching porn in the House of Commons. That’s not what you were doing.’‘I was trying to make the point that the House of Commons is a very boring place, but you should not watch porn, boys and girls.’
