Summary
Shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick has been sacked by Tory leader Kemi Badenoch for "plotting to defect"
Badenoch says she had "clear, irrefutable evidence" that Jenrick was "plotting in secret to defect in a way designed to be as damaging as possible" to her party
A senior Conservative MP close to Badenoch tells the BBC they had "incontrovertible evidence" that Jenrick was about to defect including a "full speech and media plan"

They've not only suspended the Whip but also his party registration!
Gosh, how heartbreaking. Drums too?
The Tories are idiots.
Defect? Is he escaping from a Communist country from behind the Iron Curtain? If he wants to leave the Tories, let him. Its not a betrayal. But he should be up front about it, resign his leadership post and simply leave the party, not plot to do it in secret while still the Whip.
I agree it sees they got wind of it and are calling it a plot
Then he can just call himself Reform, then.
What’s the issue?
