As a Labour MP he is also bound by the Rules and Regulations of his party - whose broad outline of policies, beliefs and common aims are determined at an Annual National Conference. I have had a re-read of the Labour Party Constitution and can see why he probably feels he has acted within the premises of his party and can sleep peacefully with his chosen course of action.
See Clause 4, paragraph 2 c and Clause 4 paragraph 3.
Labour Party Rules
This does not mean that i agree with his chosen course of action - it takes a certain kind of courage to be a rebel...
