​After the mass walkout of the shadow cabinet, Labour Party parliamentary members overwhelmingly backed a vote of no confidence in Corbyn on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, more than 230,000 people have signed a petition to back Corbyn’s leadership of the party in a bid to prevent his resignation. Corbyn has so far refused to resign.
