Quick question for people in Blackpool south

[Far north tangerine]

I am watching BBC news this morning and I have to know who the guy stood on the right of the labour mp is?
He had a union jack tie and some kind of headgear on
He had the most dramatic style of headshaking I've ever seen !
Literally shook his head to every word

I’m sure I saw former Blackpool Labour MP Gordon Marsden stood behind Starmer and was talking to him.
Nice to see him pop up from his home in Brighton something he didn’t do too often when he was the MP.
