Co-ops, and Reform UK
editWe should add the Co-ops to the list under labour and the TUV to reform as they share a whip AbledAtol (talk) 18:25, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Regarding Reform, I think we need a clear source about them sharing a whip and if so depict them as "Reform UK/TUV" with the breakdown of 5 Reform and 1 TUV then given in an indent immediately beneath in the list, similar to how pages for other legislatures reflect alliances of parties. Without definitive proof that they do share a whip and are behaving as a joint party, they should be shown separately. Maswimelleu (talk) 11:13, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
The vacant seat has been filled

New Independents.
editLabour have suspended 7 MPs taking their number from 411 to 404 and Independents from 6 to 13. GandalfXLD (talk) 19:05, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
Presence of SDLP MPs on the Government Bench
editWhilst the SDLP are not directly subject to the Labour whip, they have seated themselves on the government bench due to being Labour's sister party in Northern Ireland.[1] I appreciate twitter is not a sufficient source in its own right but should their presence on that bench be reflected in the illustration of Parliament and would it still be accurate to call them "opposition" when they are overtly supporting the government?
