Sir Keir Starmer's decision to welcome former Tory MP Natalie Elphicke into the Labour Party has provoked a strong backlash among his own MPs. Ms Elphicke, the MP for Dover, crossed the floor of the House of Commons to sit on the Labour benches on Wednesday just moments before PMQs, surprising Conservative and Labour members alike.
In a statement, Ms Elphicke said that under Rishi Sunak, the Conservatives had become a "byword for incompetence and division." She added that the Labour Party has changed "out of all recognition". She is set to stand down at the next election.The defection is the latest blow for the Conservatives - who lost Dan Poulter MP to Labour last month over concerns for the NHS.
