Lazy Labour MPs to be told to pull their weight in Parliament for the first time

WOBH has been informed via the tipline that Labour MPs who are considered not to be pulling their weight in Parliament are to be sent a letter detailing the minimum amount of work that is expected of them.

Under proposals to be put to Labour’s national executive committee next week, around 20 backbench MPs will for the first time be told to do a basic minimum amount of work.

Currently there is no set amount of work which must be done by an MP, apart from a requirement to serve their constituents.
