Sir Keir Starmer has seen off a backbench rebellion over plans to cut the winter fuel allowance but the Government’s majority fell to 120.
MPs voted 348 to 228 against the Tory motion for the controversial policy to be blocked.

A list of how MPs voted will be available shortly, though it will not be immediately clear how many actively chose to abstain as it will only show who voted in favour, against and who did not record a vote.
For example, some may not record a vote because they were unable to attend due to other commitments.
The Government’s working majority is 167.
