The General Politics Thread v2.0 (AKA the "Labour are Cunts" thread)

Natalie Elphicke, the Tory MP for Dover who wanted to criminalise abortion in Northern Ireland and suggested that Dr Marcus Rashford missed that penalty in the final because he spent too much time trying to get free school meals for kids, has defected to Labour. She got the job after her husband stepped down from the role after being charged with sexual harassment. 
 

But she plays for the red team now so she’s sound.

years of being told that there's nothing more important than "getting the Tories out" by a party that just can't stop letting Tories in, fucking state of them.

She's defected based on broken promises? What Labouresque promises has he made? His promises were about reduced immigration and shipping a load of people off to Rwanda. Sounds like some cunt who's defecting now so she doesn't go down with the sinking ship.

She's announced, just like the last defector, shes standing down at the next election. I guess the political optics are that they are disgruntled and its a vote of no confidence in the party/leader. But I don't think it is a victory to voters, of anything its a negative to Labour support.
