Progressive independent MPs form new commons group
PROGRESSIVE independent MPs today formally constituted themselves as a new parliamentary group to fight for peace, equality and democracy “in a Parliament of despair.”
The five MPs formed the Independent Alliance, which will be the joint fifth-largest group in the house, alongside Reform UK and the Democratic Unionist Party.
The group, which includes former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, will now have greater opportunities to ask Commons questions and intervene.
