Dozens of MPs refuse to back plans to cut winter fuel payments

Sir Keir Starmer has survived his second Commons rebellion in weeks. With his massive majority it was a comfortable win and only one Labour MP voted against the leadership – but there were more than fifty abstentions.
We don’t yet know how many of them were deliberate rebellions and how many were allowed to stay away for work or private reasons. Ministers accused the Conservatives of faking outrage at the cut.
