Good stuff. The Tories being shitty is no surprise, but I am disappointed in Labour and the LDs. Not very surprised, but still a bit disappointed
The lack of a unionist party supporting this means that it is unnecessarily political is the sad to say and see. I really can't comprehend how the LD whipped for this!
LD abstention really is a weird one given that they've advocated for recognising Palestine and banning imports from West Bank settlements recently, too, the latter of which I will admit I did not know they had done. I don't see anything explaining the decision with a brief search
