Education secretary Bridget Phillipson says it is 'absolutely sickening' for Tories to vote against child protection legislation.

She was even stronger than Keir Starmer in attacking the Tories over the reasoned amendment they have tabled that would block the children’s wellbeing and schools bill.

Keir Starmer says Tories 'more interested in retweets than safeguarding of children' if they vote for amendment.

Kemi Badenoch is pushing for a vote on the children’s wellbeing and schools bill that would block the legislation and call on the government to set up an inquiry instead.

She said: 'They are bandwagon jumpers who have absolutely no shame. They are sickening' Tory MPs will be in the Commons for first PMQs of 2025 .
