Whose Side Are You On?
Immigration and Asylum Bill
▸ How to play
- A real division, drawn from the archive.
- Cast YOUR vote first - aye or no, as if you sat on the benches.
- Then meet the MPs you sided with, party by party. Prepare for surprises.
- No score, no verdict - just you against your assumptions.
First big vote. The first yes/no vote on the whole idea of the bill. Agreeing means it continues; rejecting kills it.

What they were voting on - Parliament's own words
“A Bill to make provision for the annual approval by the House of Commons of maximum numbers in respect of immigration and asylum; to provide that asylum may only be granted to individuals identified as refugees by the UN Refugee Agency, other than in specified circumstances; and for connected purposes.”
Forget how the House voted - how would YOU vote?
