On ConHome yesterday Philip Cowley listed some of the key facts about the latest state of rebellious play in the Conservative parliamentary party, including:
- The fact that the rebellion of the 53 was the 30th Conservative backbench rebellion on Europe since 2010;
- 98 Tory MPs have now voted against Government on Europe;
- 26 of Wednesday night's 53 EU budget rebels were from new intake;
- Stockton South MP James Wharton was only first time rebel amongst the 53;
