    But a junior doctor, Mei Nortley, says the health service is stretched and junior doctors are being asked to do too much. She adds that she has full confidence in the BMA.

    Shadow energy secretary Lisa Nandy has cast some doubt on the position set out by John McDonnell this morning, saying "it's not my understanding" that he would be able to disagree from the backbenches.

    She said: "I can't imagine Hilary would've accepted a deal to stay in his job if he couldn't speak. What I think they will have agreed is to come to a collective view on the questions of the day."
