The Brexit-supporting MP from Dover stated that the Tory party has undergone “dramatic and irreversible” transformation since she joined parliament in 2019.
Harriett “looks to the future—to building a Britain of hope, optimism, opportunity, and fairness” was her response to the “broken promises of Rishi Sunak’s tired and chaotic government.”.
After former minister Dan Poulter defected to the Opposition in 11 days, Mrs. Elphicke became the second Tory MP to join the Labour Party.
Dr. Poulter, a part-time NHS physician, said he could no longer be a Conservative and look his patients and colleagues in the eye.
