Chris Hinchliff MP has made a brief statement regarding his suspension from the Labour Party for voting against the government's proposed welfare cuts.
Statement from Chris Hinchliff MP
Apologies for the brief interlude in responding to recent news about the withdrawal of the Labour Whip.
I have been busy in the House of Commons chamber carrying on with my day job and making the case for a new generation of council housing to provide a secure start in life for every child currently in temporary accommodation.
I remain proud to have been elected as a Labour MP and I hope in time to return to the Labour benches.
In the meantime I will continue to fight every day for the needs of my constituents and nothing will change in how I engage with and represent those I was elected to serve.
