Global perspective
Labour leader Keir Starmer has suspended four MPs – Neil Duncan-Jordan, Brian Leishman, Chris Hinchliff, and Rachael Maskell – for defying party orders and voting against recent welfare reforms. This move underscores Starmer's commitment to maintaining party discipline and enforcing a unified stance on key policy decisions. The suspensions will likely lead to internal debate and could potentially impact future votes on contentious issues. The Labour Party has yet to release an official statement detailing the length or specific terms of the suspensions.
