Expelled ex Tory MP Andrew Bridgen has announced he’s joining Laurence Fox’s Reclaim Party - making him its first member of Parliament. At a press conference today Mr Bridgen said he would be standing at his North West Leicestershire constituency at the next general election.
The controversial MP was thrown out of the Tory party for comparing vaccines to the Holocaust. At the press conference this morning Mr Bridgen confirmed he has decided not to appeal - and blasted the Conservative Party.
Laurence Fox’s reclaim party is controversial and has been anti-lockdown and critical of vaccines. Mr Bridgen said: “Even if I were to be given a fair hearing, which I doubt, I would not wish to rejoin the party after the treatment received by myself and my family over the past few years.
