How Labour MPs voted on recognition of Palestinian Statehood

Tonight MPs voted on Labour backbencher Grahame Morris’s motion to recognise Palestinian statehood. It was a non-binding vote (so it doesn’t change the government’s position), but the result was an overwhelming 274-12 in favour. Apart from the EU referendum vote (3 line whipped by all three major parties) tonight was the biggest turnout for a backbench vote ever.

So how did Labour MPs vote? Well 192 voted in favour – and one teller for Aye (Alex Cunningham) and two tellers for Noe (Jeremy Corbyn and Mike Wood) supported the motion too. So that’s 195 Labour MPs in total, around 80% of the PLP.

The remaining 63 Labour MPs were either absent/abstained/chose not to vote – there were no Labour MPs amongst the 12 Noe votes, so no-one outright rebelled against the one line whip.

It’s hard to tell for each individual MP what the individual reason was, although some (for example Lucy Powell) have already been in touch to say that they would have voted Yes had they been able to make the vote tonight. Jonathan Reynolds has also indicated his support for a Yes vote, although he wasn’t able to attend the vote today.
