Jeremy Corbyn will carry out a mini-reshuffle after two shadow cabinet members quit his top team to defy his orders and vote against formally triggering Brexit.

Shadow environment secretary Rachael Maskell and shadow equalities minister Dawn Butler both resigned so they could oppose the European Union (Notification Of Withdrawal) Bill.

Ten junior frontbenchers and three whips, who are supposed to enforce party discipline, voted against triggering Article 50.

The SNP voted en masse against the bill while there was also a sole Tory dissenter - Ken Clarke.
