Four Labour MPs have been readmitted to the parliamentary party after being suspended for voting against the government on the controversial two-child benefit cap. Richard Burgon, Ian Byrne, Imran Hussain, and Rebecca Long-Bailey have regained their party status, while three others continue to face suspension. The MPs had voted in favor of an SNP proposal to remove the cap, which restricts benefits for parents with more than two children. This incident was notable as it marked the first rebellion during Sir Keir Starmer's leadership.
Turns out speaking up for Palestine is still a punishable offence.
The suspension came after they voted for an SNP proposal to scrap the two-child benefit cap.
