'Listen to your Members'
warns MPs as the Labour right beat their war drums

The Labour leader revealed over 70,000 members have responded to an unprecedented snap consultation over air strikes since Friday.
The results, which were still being analysed by staff last night, will be presented to meetings of the shadow cabinet and Parliamentary Labour Party being held today.
