She may have resigned from her post but will Sir Keir sack her?

She is losing a lot of respect as it's the role of the whip to ensure that MPs vote in accordance with the party's wishes which she can hardly do if she can't do it herself

Probably been told to jump before she was pushed. If you are going to make a career mistake it's a good time to do it now. If she is any good Starmer will bring her back in time for the next election by which time the public won't care about her mistake.

Predictably there are stories in the papers today about the people who grassed Cummings up.

If overall the way we discussed such issues were less about rabid extremists and more a grown up debate about the issues then the pros and cons of raising and eating meat and types of husbandry could be better understood by all. And we could all make informed decisions not based on he or she who shouts loudest.
