Labour readmits four MPs suspended for rebelling-OxBig News Network

Four MPs suspended by Labour for voting against the government on the two-child benefit cap have been readmitted into the parliamentary party.

Labour has restored the whip to Richard Burgon, Ian Byrne, Imran Hussain and Rebecca Long-Bailey, after they spent just over six months as independents.

Three others who rebelled in July’s vote – John McDonnell, Apsana Begum and Zarah Sultana – remain suspended.
