Jessica Morden Jessica Morden - Labour MP for Newport East, PPS to Keir Starmer and Shadow Minister for Wales
Yesterday in Parliament MPs voted on Labour’s amendment to the Fire Safety Bill.
As a teller for the ayes, alongside Bambos Charalambous, I recorded the number of those voting in favour of Labour’s amendment to the bill. Unfortunately, we were defeated by the Conservatives by 318-188.
Not only does this break the Government’s promise to implement the recommendations from Phase 1 of the Grenfell Inquiry but their refusal to take action leaves thousands of people in unsafe housing. #Justice4Grenfell
