PMQs: Sir Keir Starmer welcomes Tory defector Natalie Elphicke to Labour

Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer face off in the House of Commons for the weekly session of Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs).

    It's a stunt to show a view of why Sunak is unfit for office, from a conservative perspective. She plans to not run for re-election, so it's just purely symbolic. Labour know she hasn't changes her views, nor really care, as it's about showing that Tories are unfit for purpose. She won't have a say if Labour win the election as someone for Labour will be contesting the seat. Who knows, it may backfire, as it may outrage the Tory base in Dover and kill off the Labour candidate.

    Risk everything by crossing the channel... and the 50 other countries they could have stopped at along the way! More people immigrated to the UK in the past 20 years than from 1066 - 2000. This is a small island with finite resources and a housing crisis. We can't be the world's refugee dumping ground forever.

    It’s irrelevent how short a time there is before the next general election. During a parliament isn’t it bad enough yet alone undemocratic for MP’s to defect to another party that’s different from the party they were representing at their election? If Natalie Elphicke was unhappy with the Tory government shouldn’t she have - in proper consultation with her Dover constituency - either resigned her Tory whip, stood as an independent or quit altogether? However it’s not rocket science to understand why another right wing Tory MP defects to Starmer’s Labour ‘just like that’. All it says is many right wing Tory MP’s regard Starmer, who via the NEC removed the whip from elected Labour party MP’s like Corbyn and Abbott and even removed the Labour membership of an actual elected North Eastern Labour Mayor Sean O’Driscoll, as being a more reliable right wing leader than their own! If any MP party defection has to take place at all which would make far more political sense these days it would be Starmer defecting to the Tories via the proper official channels of course. The current twenty five odd point lead Labour has over the Tories is not down to Starmer’s alleged ‘changed’ Labour Party and its useless aspirational reformist policies. Isn’t it down solely to the rotten decayed state of 14 years of failed Tory government?
