How will each Labour MP vote on Equal Marriage?

Today much of the interest will be in the size of the Tory “rebellion” (it’s technically not a rebellion as it’s a “free vote”) over Equal Marriage. Labour MPs have also been offered a free vote on Equal Marriage, and thanks to research carried out by LGBT Labour and exclusively revealed below, we know how the vast majority of Labour MPs will be voting. All of the Shadow Cabinet will be backing Equal Marriage, but it’s worth noting that five Shadow Ministers (Tony Cunningham, Stephen Pound, Rob Flello, Gavin Shuker and Stephen Timms) are not believed to be backing Equal Marriage, with 3 – Cunningham, Pound and Flello – voting against and the other two abstaining.
