THIS BILL WAS SUPPORTED BY 136 MPs FROM ALL WINGS OF PARTY -NO WAY OUT OF THIS ONE GORDON!

I think that's what you call a result..... by 147 votes to 11, Labour MPs have backed Andrew Miller's bid to end the two-tier workfirce and give equal rights to agency workers. Which will make it very, very difficult for the Government to listen to the hysterical voices of the CBI and try and weasel its way out of ensuring that the growing number of temporary and agency workers enjoy the same rights as permanent staff. We don't need a "Commission", we just need this long overdue legislation to be implemented ASAP. And here's the full list of MPs who backed it , which I notice includes Peter Hain......Alun Michael, Fiona MacTaggart and EVEN Sion Simon.
Our three neighbouring MPs, Chris McCafferty, Linda Riordan and Mike Wood are all on the roll of honour. Well done, all . The message couldn't be clearer......
