NEWS STORY : Natalie Elphicke Defects to Labour Party
STORY
Natatlie Elphicke, the MP for Dover, has defected to the Labour Party and launched a stinging attack on the Premiership of Rishi Sunak. Elphicke said in a statement:
“Rishi Sunak’s government is failing to keep our borders safe and secure. Lives are being lost in the English Channel while small boat arrivals are once again at record levels. It’s clear they have failed to keep our borders secure and cannot be trusted.”
Keir Starmer, the Leader of the Labour Party, said:
“What is the point of this failed government staggering on when the Tory MP for Dover on the frontline of the small boats crisis says the prime minister cannot be trusted with our borders and joins Labour?”
