They voted in overwhelming numbers to block an investigation into whether the Prime Minister misled Parliament.
Not one of them can now pretend this is someone else's problem.
Every one of the 333 Labour MPs who walked through that lobby owns this decision. Every one of them has chosen Party over Parliament, and cover-up over accountability. Enough is enough.

Keir Starmer has disgraced the country on the world stage by appointing Mandelson, a friend of the notorious paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
He's jeopardised our national security by bypassing vetting, despite Mandelson's known links to Russia and China.
He's misled Parliament by claiming "full due process" was followed.
He's sacked innocent officials to cover up his tracks.
The rules of Parliament are simple. If a Minister misleads the House, the record must be corrected at the earliest opportunity. That has not happened.
And last night, Labour MPs decided it never will.
We won't let any of them get away with it.
The Prime Minister is in trouble because working as a united team we exposed the truth.
At PMQs in September, responding to me, the Prime Minister claimed "full due" process was followed in the Mandelson appointment. Our humble address forcing the release of the Mandelson files proved that not to be true.
And it was our work that secured yesterday's vote on the Privileges Committee.
While yesterday's vote didn't go our way, we will keep holding the Prime Minister to account. And we'll do so thanks to your incredible support.
Let's use next week's local elections to send Keir Starmer and his 333 Labour MPs a message he can't ignore.
