It is as This Site predicted.

Frontbench Labour rebels who defied Jeremy Corbyn over the Brexit Bill will not get the sack, but a written warning.

Rebels will receive a written warning, and will be expected not to defy a three-line whip again.

The reprimand emerged after Corbyn considered what disciplinary action would follow after 52 MPs ignored the leader’s orders and voted against triggering Article 50.

The light touch reaction was put down to the “extraordinary circumstances” of the referendum aftermath, according to Labour sources.
