This afternoon I’ve been contacted by several Labour MPs – including more than one shadow cabinet member – expressing their annoyance that Denis MacShane has not resigned immediately as an MP, despite losing the Labour whip.
So far former Labour colleagues are refraining from going on the record, but a senior Labour MP told me this afternoon that they would be calling publicly for MacShane to go over the weekend if he doesn’t go today.
