Hoyle's decision yesterday to kowtow to the mob (as represented by Starmer and Gray) caused chaos in yesterday's meaningless Gaza vote, and has now put his position in the firing line.
Despite his semi tearful apology, he knows that he can't unfuck this!
Whilst in the short term Labour managed to avoid an embarrassing public split; in the coming months it will realise that by pandering to religious zealots, it has made a rod for its own back.
Labour will reap what they have sown.
The lessons for Labour are as follows:
-Don't kowtow to the mob.
-Don't call political opponents "scum".
-Don't try to placate religious fanatics.
