Labour Party politics

The division list showed 14 Labour MPs rebelled to support the motion while another voted both aye and no, which is usually regarded as a formal abstention.
 
As expected 15 Labour MPs voted against and 50 did not vote.

The next vote post May elections will be more interesting.
The fifty that did not vote could well be on government business, the local elections are always whichever government a focus for malcontents. If Starmer was "dethroned" he could call an election and Labour M.P.s will not vote for civvy street.
 
Every Party used the whip on this vote certainly not unusual.
You miss the point, if he had nothing to worry about he could have just agreed to the inquiry, and we won’t talk about the press not reporting on the ongoing trial,
Why aren’t they 🤔

Although the Tories didn't when Johnson was referred for investigation.

Starmer's actions are yet another misstep by him. He could have gone in front of that panel and cleared his name. The Public will be questioning why he didn't do that.

Anyway, I thought he's wriggle out of this one, but the local elections are a different story.

Why would Labour have to worry about the outcome of a GE. They are doing such a marvellous job they’d win by a landslide, surely ?
