Furious MPs walk out in protest against Speaker

I like how this episode somehow makes Labour look like they "won". Did they. Did they really.

I'm sure it will only be a cynical approach to suggest his constant dragging of feet over this issue has nothing to do with labour still trying desperately to appear that they have purged all anti-Semitism from their ranks. Corbyn must be rubbing his hands in glee knowing that as insignificant as he is now in the Labour Party, he still generates so much fear and hatred in the upper ranks All this has done is given a damning indictment of British politics that a man like Starmer is seen as better than Sunak.
