The Commons is set to vote on an SNP motion for a ceasefire in Gaza, and the Speaker has sparked anger amongst some MPs by going against convention and selecting both the government and Labour amendments.

It's a relief for Sir Keir Starmer, who could have been facing a sizeable rebellion from his MPs.
