Factional infighting ruled Westminster this week as two of its most divisive figures returned to the front pages. For Boris Johnson, Dominic Cummings leaving the No.10 team offered a chance to reset his government, only for another bout of isolation after coming into contact with an MP infected with coronavirus thwarting him.

But in Labour, the reinstatement of former leader Jeremy Corbyn after his comments on the anti-Semitism report presented Keir Starmer with a dilemma in trying to unify the Labour Party, but has his decision to remove the whip from his predecessor just ended up just solidifying division? 

Corbyn-backing Labour MP Ian Lavery joins Arj Singh, Paul Waugh and Rachel Wearmouth to give his opinion on the week in Westminster.
