Dan Poulter and Natalie Elphicke have also defected from the Conservatives to Labour recently, in a series of blows for Rishi Sunak.
Sir Keir Starmer is celebrating the third defection by a Tory to Labour in just over a month. Mark Logan, who was elected Conservative MP for Bolton North East in 2019, has told Sky News he is quitting the Tories and is urging people to vote Labour in the general election on 4 July. In recent months he has been a fierce critic of the government's policy on Gaza and is now calling on the UK to recognise Palestine as a country.

Besides the obvious humiliation for Rishi Sunak, the latest defection is also embarrassing for the prime minister because Mr Logan is a junior member of the government, a parliamentary private secretary to ministers in the Department for Work and Pensions.
