Lindsay Hoyle earlier allowed Keir Starmer to hold a vote on Labour's preferred solution to the Middle East crisis. Dozens of Labour MPs were initially preparing to vote for a SNP motion calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. However, Hoyle decided to allow Labour to hold a vote on its own amendment, calling for a ceasefire only in certain circumstances. After chaos ensued and MPs walked out in protest, the speaker addressed MPs and apologised for his earlier decision, saying he 'regretted' how the debate had turned out. The SNP leader, Stephen Flynn, said the speaker's position was now 'intolerable'.
