That Starmer fella...

I don't really follow your point. You don't like that Starmer imposes party discipline? Ok, your prerogative, but it's not as if they didn't know they were rebelling and would likely face some consequences.

I stand by what I said. If you want to achieve something, in what world is making a public stand to show up the leadership about something is likely to be the most effective way of doing it? It isn't. If anything the threat people might rebel is a stick you can use against the leadership, once you've done it you've lost that.
