Labour: Disgraceful PM is caving into Johnson's honours list
Shadow Immigration Minister Stephen Kinnock says it is "disgraceful" the prime minister appears to be caving in to Boris Johnson's honours list which reads as a "carousel of [his] cronies".
However, he welcomed the possible by-elections that could be triggered as a result, vowing the seats to be won by Labour MPs.
