MPs face queueing for almost a kilometre to vote tomorrow under `` deranged '' plans to bring back a socially-distanced Parliament .
Jacob Rees-Mogg , the Tory leader of the Commons , has demanded MPs return to vote in person from tomorrow after months of working from home .
The plan already prompted outcry from MPs who must travel hundreds of miles to London - or are `` shielding '' at home for medical reasons .
Now the scheme has been branded `` madness '' after it emerged MPs will form a queue up to 800 metres long to vote @ @ @ @ @ @ @ line for an Alton Towers ride - will be put into action for the first time when MPs vote on the new arrangements tomorrow lunchtime .
It is understood MPs will form a single queue through the Commons , snaking through the centre of the chamber and out into the rest of the rabbit warren-like Parliamentary estate .
Arrangements after tomorrow are yet to be decided but Mr Rees-Mogg says MPs should vote in person and safely - leaving few options .
If all 650 MPs voted - which never happens for various @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long .
But even with up to 400 MPs in the House of Commons , as is expected this week , the queue will be 800 metres long .
Labour MP Chris Bryant tweeted : `` The idea that we should queue to vote in a conga snake round the parliamentary estate like we ’ re waiting for Oblivion at Alton Towers is madness .
`` We will look like the stupidest Parliament in the world so hidebound we can ’ t adapt . ''
He added : `` Parliament can ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It has to enable those who are shielding or caring for others to participate . ''
The government has claimed it is `` essential '' for MPs to return to Parliament in person while schools and non-essential shops begin to reopen .
Mr Rees-Mogg said today : `` One of the advantages of the return to physical proceedings is that the total numbers on the estate will not increase significantly .
`` MPs ’ staff will continue to work from home , while numbers will remain limited in the chamber itself so that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being .
What is going to change is the quality of scrutiny .
`` The virtual Parliament brought us through the peak of the pandemic but it is no longer necessary to make the compromises it demanded .
We can do so much better . ''
He added : `` For those MPs with underlying health conditions who have been told to shield or are receiving specific government advice about their health , the Government is working with the House authorities to see how they can continue to contribute to proceedings within the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ review while the views of others , including the Procedure Committee , will be sought . ''
Yet critics say the government 's own guidance is clear that anyone who can work from home , should do so .
Commons authorities had worked out a remote voting system and started using it - but Mr Rees-Mogg now wants to abandon it .
The cross-party , Tory-led Procedure Committee warned over the weekend : `` We have serious concerns over the operation of this system in practice .
`` It should be treated as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as agreement can be found on an alternative method of voting . ''
Labour MP Peter Dowd tweeted : `` I ’ m afraid this plan for MPs ’ voting arrangement in Parliament from the Tories is deranged , no other word for it and simply sums up their disastrous handling of the whole coronavirus crisis .
Labour MP Barbara Keeley added : `` In forcing the return of Parliament , Boris Johnson risks sending a dangerous message to bad employers .
`` The Speaker has said that MPs will be unable to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the return is unworkable . ''
Commons sources suggested MPs who can not vote in person will have to be `` paired '' off with an MP from a rival party .
Usually there are fewer than a dozen of these MPs on each side , but there could now be more than 100 on each bench .
These arrangements are overseen by party whips and are not properly open to public scrutiny .
A source close to Mr Rees-Mogg insisted the length of queues is being `` slightly exaggerated '' .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plans for voting tomorrow - but they may not actually say how voting will work .
Instead , sources suggested his motion would spell out the principles - that voting should be in person and safe - and leave the details to the Commons authorities to work out .
`` If the Speaker has a way of avoiding long queues , then great , '' one source said .
`` How it ’ s actually done is a matter for the House . ''
SNP MP Tommy Sheppard said : `` Boris Johnson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Parliament are a total shambles - they are unworkable , unsustainable and unravelling further by the day . ''
Lib Dem MP Wendy Chamberlain added : `` With only 50 MPs permitted in the Commons and virtual questions no longer allowed , Jacob Rees-Mogg is setting a dangerous precedent by blocking opportunity for full scrutiny .
`` This is especially worrying for those Members unable to travel to Westminster for coronavirus-related reasons .
`` The need for socially distanced votes will slow down Parliament and waste hours of time . ''

The plan has been branded 'madness' and compared to a conga line or an Alton Towers ride - with MPs questioning why they can't just vote from home
MPs fear they could face queues almost a kilometre long to vote under "deranged" plans to bring back a socially-distanced Parliament.
Jacob Rees-Mogg, the Tory leader of the Commons, faces a backlash after he demanded MPs return to vote in person from this week.
The plan, after months of working from home, already prompted outcry from MPs who must travel hundreds of miles to London - or are "shielding" at home for medical reasons.
Now the scheme has been branded "madness" after it emerged MPs could form a queue up to 800 metres long to vote.
A queue system - compared to the line for an Alton Towers ride - is expected to be used on Tuesday, when MPs vote on a government motion setting out the new arrangements.

It is understood Speaker Lindsay Hoyle will ask MPs to form a single queue through the Commons, snaking through the centre of the chamber and out into the rest of the rabbit warren-like estate.
The exact arrangements after Tuesday are not decided yet, and the government expects them to be worked out by Parliamentary officials.
But Mr Rees-Mogg believes MPs should vote in person and safely - which may leave few other options.
Labour and other opposition parties tonight tabled an amendment to the government's motion which, if passed, would keep remote voting.
Shadow leader of the Commons Valerie Vaz said: "Jacob Rees-Mogg's discriminatory proposals would result in two classes of MPs.
"Those who can physically attend and those unable to owing to the Government's own rules, including having an underlying health condition or shielding responsibilities.
"The abolition of the hybrid remote parliament which allowed all MPs to take part regardless of their personal circumstances is discriminatory and would not be acceptable in any other workplace.
"We remain ready to work with the Government and all parties to reach a consensus that would allow all MPs to participate on an equal basis."
The Electoral Reform Society added: "If this goes ahead, it is beyond a farce.
"It is unacceptable when there is currently a safe, secure and speedy option for voting available: remote/digital voting. MPs have already used it, and it works.
"Since some MPs are shielding and are not safe to travel in person, these plans - if confirmed - pose a real threat for democratic representation and political equality."
Labour MP Margaret Hodge, who is classed as 'vulnerable', said she'd be unable to vote adding: "I am furious that for the first time in my 25 years as an MP I am being denied the right to vote."
If all 650 MPs voted - which never happens for various reasons - a queue of MPs spaced two metres apart would be 1.3km long if all MPs voted at the same time.
Even with 250 MPs expected to be away from Parliament, a queue of 400 MPs standing at once would be 800 metres long.
A source close to Mr Rees-Mogg insisted an 800-metre queue length - warned of by the cross-party Procedure Committee - was "slightly exaggerated".
Downing Street added the exact shape of the voting system in the future is not decided yet, and will be decided by the Parliamentary authorities.
PM Boris Johnson's spokesman said: “The House will vote tomorrow on a motion laying out requirements for the new voting system, including that votes will be carried out in person and in accordance with Public Health England guidelines.
“It will be for the House authorities to implement a new system.”
Labour MP Chris Bryant tweeted: "The idea that we should queue to vote in a conga snake round the parliamentary estate like we’re waiting for Oblivion at Alton Towers is madness.
"We will look like the stupidest Parliament in the world so hidebound we can’t adapt."
He added: "Parliament can’t just be survival of the fittest. It has to enable those who are shielding or caring for others to participate."
No10 suggested MPs who cannot vote in person will be "paired" off with an MP from a rival party.
These arrangements are overseen by party whips and are not properly open to public scrutiny. Usually there are fewer than a dozen of these MPs on each side, but there could now be more than 100 on each bench.
The government has claimed it is "essential" for MPs to return to Parliament in person while schools and non-essential shops begin to reopen.
Mr Rees-Mogg said today: "One of the advantages of the return to physical proceedings is that the total numbers on the estate will not increase significantly.
"MPs’ staff will continue to work from home, while numbers will remain limited in the chamber itself so that its atmosphere remains muted for the time being. What is going to change is the quality of scrutiny.
"The virtual Parliament brought us through the peak of the pandemic but it is no longer necessary to make the compromises it demanded. We can do so much better."
He added: "For those MPs with underlying health conditions who have been told to shield or are receiving specific government advice about their health, the Government is working with the House authorities to see how they can continue to contribute to proceedings within the House. This situation will remain under review while the views of others, including the Procedure Committee, will be sought."

Labour MP Peter Dowd tweeted: "I’m afraid this plan for MPs’ voting arrangement in Parliament from the Tories is deranged, no other word for it and simply sums up their disastrous handling of the whole coronavirus crisis.
"Arrogance and utter incompetence in equal measure."

Children in England in Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 are among the first to return to school however not all parents have sent their kids back, while some schools do not reopen until next week
Thousands of children are heading back to school from today - but the classrooms they are returning to are very different to the ones they left in March.
Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 are the first to go back as part of the government's phased plan to return life back to some sort of normality as the coronavirus lockdown begins to ease.
Pupils face staggered drop-offs, half days, smaller classes and zoned playground, while bringing in pencil cases is banned to reduce the risk of Covid-19 spreading.
Some students are not even returning until next week, while many parents are refusing to send their children back as they do not feel it is safe enough.

This morning, youngsters returning to Queen's Hill Primary School, in Costessey, Norfolk, grinned in their summer uniform while armed with their backpacks and lunch boxes, with 46 attending out of a total of 75 in the year group.
The government is advising pupils to wear their school uniform as normal unless they cannot easily be washed.
Teachers are being encouraged to clean all frequently touched surfaces, equipment, door handles and toilets used during the day.

Schools are also being told to limit the number of shared resources - such as books - that are taken home by staff and pupils. Teachers should make sure they wash their hands and surfaces, before and after handling pupils’ books.
Teachers are also being told to reduce possible contact between different groups of children, and between adults, and potentially make sure corridors are being used on a one way basis at any given time.
Matt Alcock, headteacher of Caldecote Community Primary School, in Braunstone, Leicester, and his staff have set out 23 socially distanced classrooms ready for pupils.

He invited LeicestershireLive in to have a look at what he described as ‘23 schools in one', talk about how things will differ as well as how children, parents and his staff have coped with a situation nobody could have ever envisaged.
Caldecote has been open to the children of keyworkers and vulnerable pupils every day since lockdown began in March.
poll loading Do you think children should be going back to school today? 5000+ VOTES SO FAR Yes No
Initially, only 20 or so children were coming in every day but that number has now risen to around 70.
Mr Alcock said this has been advantageous because the higher numbers has helped him and his colleagues get a head start in preparations for the 167 pupils he expects back.

They will be split into ‘bubbles’ of nine children who will be able to interact with each other and and their teachers but nobody else.
He said: “We are ready to open.
“We have done extensive risk assessments - one for every classroom to find out how many children we can safely get in them using the social distancing of two metres.
“We won’t be doing nursery provision though, we don’t think we’re ready just yet for that.”

He added that each pupil will have a set desk and set chair. Their coat will go on the back of their chair and if they bring their lunch in it will go under the desk until they eat it at their desk.
Penny Sheppard, headteacher of Queen's Hill Primary and Nursery School near Norwich, which reopened to reception children today, believes that reopening "can work in a child-friendly way".
"It can work and what I wanted to show is it can work in a child-friendly way," she said.

"That to me is our motto, our line is to have a passion for learning and I want that to happen whether children are at home, whether they're at school, we don't want children to lose that."
She added that it was a "juggling act" with online learning continuing for reception children who are not attending in person now the school has reopened.
"I do feel, as many headteachers and teachers are feeling at the moment, that I'm living and breathing this," she said.
"But just seeing the kids' faces today, looking at the pupils' faces, they're so excited to be in school.

"Their enthusiasm - I heard one of them say 'I love a challenge!'

Sam explained: "I was 18 and Briony was 16. We'd dated in our early teens for eight months but we lived miles apart and we weren't seeing each other so I ended it. Two years later we were both working in a theatre workshop."
Briony chipped in: "I'd been pining for Sam in those two years we were apart and after we re-met we arranged a date."
"We got on so much better the second time around and we haven't looked back since – we feel incredibly lucky," Sam added.

Jordan Henderson has revealed his little "shuffle" celebration when lifting the Champions League trophy was purely for "banter" following a joke with Andy Robertson.
