Scousers were left cringing after Jacob Rees-Mogg tried his hand at the John Barnes rap from a New Order anthem.
House of Commons Leader Jacob Rees-Mogg attempted to recite John Barnes' rap from New Order's World In Motion to his fellow MPs today (July 8).
There was laughter in the chamber as Mr Rees-Mogg made his way through the lyrics - including assuring Speaker Lindsay Hoyle "we ain't no hooligans".

Mr Rees-Mogg said: "Everyone, I think, is rejoicing at the football success and I think the line to take is from Mr Barnes.
"You've got to hold and give but do it at the right time.
"You can be slow or fast but you must get to the line.
"Can I reassure you, Mr Speaker, that we ain't no hooligans, this ain't a football song.
"Three Lions on my chest, I know we can't go wrong.
"Or as another John put it, John Dryden, 'for they can conquer who believe they can'.
"I think for the record that Dryden was translating Virgil in those comments."
He added: 'It is indeed the excellent leadership of Mr Southgate which led to such a good triumph yesterday against Denmark, and let's hope for the same on Sunday."
Scousers were quick to slam the MP for using the lyrics in the House of Commons with many saying it was "awkward".
Rachel Chadwick said it made her "full body cringe" with Mick Stocko adding "he is a horrible, haunted pencil."
Adam Jones said: "It’s like when someone has their mates round and their parents are trying to look hip and fail miserably. Awkward."
Gina Kane said: "He's not amusing."
