‘It’s a con’: Labour amendment to put Sunak’s migrant bill under fresh scrutiny

Prime minister told to expect biggest rebellion of this parliament' as migration bill returns to Commons

Labour will seek to put Rishi Sunak's inability to secure an EU migrant returns deal under fresh scrutiny with a vote on the government's migration bill.

The bill will return to the Commons on Monday for its committee stage, where MPs will examine it line by line over two days. The prime minister has been told to expect the biggest rebellion of this parliament, with at least 60 Conservative MPs likely to vote against the bill amid concerns that it is not tough enough.
