Here are the results for each of the votes: Remember, the Conservatives have a majority in the Commons, so it wasn't much of a surprise.īut there have been a few high profile Tory rebels in the mix, including former minister Sir Robert Buckland and ex-Tory leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith. That's all the votes over now, and the government has won every single one - meaning all nine amendments from the Lords have been rejected. I heard Angela Rayner telling the room that she understood where they were coming from, but 'our number one aim is to be a cabinet and get rid of the shadow, become a real cabinet'.īut there is ambiguity in the Labour Party tonight and MPs are furious. Stella Creasy also told the room: 'It matters so much, you hear it on the doorstep'.Īfter the meeting, Rosie Duffield was extremely angry, telling me she was 'sick to death of it', and scrapping the policy was 'a basic principle you expect from Labour' - even if she did understand the points about fiscal responsibility. The questions were about the fact Labour had chosen not to oppose it or abolish it if they get into power.Ĭlive Efford told the room it was a 'terrible mistake that we’ve made', and the 'party needs to think again'. I have been listening in outside as the PLP - or Parliamentary Labour Party - held a meeting, with deputy leader Angela Rayner addressing MPs.Īnd there were so many questions on the two-child benefit cap - the government policy that limits child benefit and Universal Credit claims to two children per family. This is a potential policy decision that might end up splitting the Labour Party more than Sir Keir Starmer first expected.
