good afternoon, any words for natalie elphicke? it's a shame, with natalie being further to the right than me i would be surprised if she finds a home with the labour party. if you look at the things she has said in the past, her criticisms of labour on immigration policy, on the boats, it seems completely incompatible with her position now. pfft, it's up to her. any words to offer her? i only go through dover for the ferry. natalie elphicke became an mp in 2019, replacing her then—husband charlie elphicke, who she's seen talking to here. he was charged with sexually assaulting two women, and later convicted and jailed, at which point she announced that their marriage was ending. tonight, labour will hope the focus is on the big picture. two defections from the conservatives in less than a fortnight. natalie elphicke today, after this man, dan poulter, a week last sunday. let's take a look at some of the stories in the headlines in the uk. john swinney has become the seventh first minister of scotland. his appointment was rubberâ
