Meg Hillier and other select committee chairs had planned to pull the reasoned amendment signed by 120+ Labour MPs. But it's not yet been withdrawn. Senior Labour MPs are "in talks" about whether it will be. Welfare bill could still be in serious trouble.

Tomorrows welfare vote not quite as nailed on for the government as it seemed this morning:.
EXCL: Key architect of the welfare rebellion Debbie Abrahams tells @romillyweeks the concessions still don't go far enough. 'We implore the government to think again', she said. Abrahams says she'll vote against the bill or abstain unless there are further changes

Number 10 is putting pressure on Labour MPs who’ve signed this amendment - threatening them with deselection and claiming MPs are withdrawing their names. But as @romillyweeks reports - numbers have swelled to 119.
Numbers signing the amendment opposing the govt’s welfare reforms growing - up to 119 now @ITVNewsPolitics.

NEW: 108 Labour MPs have now backed the amendment opposing the government’s welfare bill - including 10 select committee chairs, as revealed by @romillyweeks. More than enough to kill the bill when it’s debated next week.
The amendment opposing the Govt’s Welfare Bill has been tabled. I understand 80 MPs have signed and that doesn’t include any of the Socialist Campaign Group who are also opposed. So unless they come up with concessions the Govt would be heading for defeat next wk @itvnews.

Supporters of Kim Leadbeater's bill believe the amendments passed today shouldn't derail it. Some MPs expressed frustration at what they saw as efforts by MPs opposed to assisted dying to delay the amendment votes in the hope of derailing the entire assisted dying bill.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves says she’ll announce plans for Northern Powerhouse Rail in the coming weeks. Is that a new high speed rail line from Liverpool to Hull? Or just a new line from Liverpool to Manchester? Big difference in cost and boost for northern passengers and economy.
