Neath MP reveals her position
Christina Rees speaks out
"The result of the motion of no confidence on Tuesday made it clear that Jeremy had lost the confidence of the PLP. We need a leader that can unite the PLP and the Labour Party.
I have devoted my life to the Labour Party and the thought of the Party splitting was breaking my heart.
Following discussions with members of my CLP, I have tendered my resignation as Shadow Justice Minister, but I will continue to fight for my constituents from the back benches, and do all I can for the people of Neath, for Wales and for my Party."
