British opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn was Monday under increasing pressure to allow his Labour Party's lawmakers a free vote in parliament on British air strikes against ISIS in Syria, AFP reports.
Prime Minister David Cameron will present the case for action this week before asking parliament to vote, and looks set to receive the backing of some Labour MPs despite Corbyn's opposition to the strikes.
Shadow defence minister Maria Eagle on Monday told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that "there will be some support from the Labour party for him [Cameron] to do what he wishes" if they approve of his plan.
