Welcome To The Gang

Flanked by John Cryer and Barry Gardiner, with Steve Rotheram at only one remove and with Diane Abbott immediately behind, there was Douglas Carswell.

On the bench that is always headed up by Dennis Skinner, with Ronnie Campbell as a kind of permanent Deputy Leader or Chief Whip.

Other regulars include Grahame Morris, Ian Lavery, Ian Mearns, Kelvin Hopkins and Jimmy Hood.

Past stalwarts have included Bob Cryer, Mick Clapham, Ken Purchase, Max Madden, Harry Barnes, Terry Lewis, Andrew Mackinlay, Dennis Canavan, and on back to Ian Mikardo, Tom Swain and Frank Allaun.

If nothing else, it is undeniably Eurosceptic Central.

We trust that Carswell will be joining his new companions in the Division Lobbies on the widest possible variety of issues.
