12:24Now PlayingYesterday, Keir Starmer suspended the whip from four Labour MPs known for being outspoken critics of the Government's policy on welfare.
We spoke to one of those MPs, Brian Leishman.
Removing the whip effectively suspends the MPs from the parliamentary Labour Party, meaning they will now sit as independents unless or until the whip is restored. But what triggered this bold step, and what does it mean for the future of the Labour Party?
In this video, we break down the context, causes, and consequences of Starmer’s decision. Whether it’s a response to internal dissent, controversial statements, or breaches of party discipline, Starmer’s leadership style is being tested.
