Labour is facing a 'mutiny' for 'betraying' British soldiers over its plan to scrap legal protection for Northern Ireland veterans.
It comes as three of the biggest infantry regiments in the British Army appeared to break ranks online to condemn proposals to axe the Legacy Act.
The legislation offers protection for UK troops who served during the Troubles fighting the IRA, by shutting down historical inquests and preventing new civil cases from being launched.
Two separate tweets from The Rifles' and the Royal Fusiliers Regimental HQ's accounts on X shared a petition urging members to sign it to spark a debate in Parliament to 'correct' the reforms to the Act.
An email from The Royal Welsh's Regimental HQ - seen by MailOnline - was also sent out by retired Colonel Rob Dickinson, calling on troops and their families to back the campaign.
