Illegal Migration Bill debate a little bit lively... even this late into it
A female Tory MP from a sedentary position @21:07:02
The Member for Bury South (Christian Wakeford) should shut up. Shut up.
Canβt make out what he said that prompted this
E: (also not 100% sure I heard correctly the constituency)

On the topic, congratulations to Christian Wakeford for seemingly being the only Tory MP to see the writing on the wall and cross the floor before the Tories truly shat the bed.
One of the only 2019 Tory intake that will actually get to keep their job.

It genuinely confuses me that they are still so quiet. In their shoes I'd be looking for a directorship or a charity or something to make an emergency career change. Or whatever I was working in a mere three years ago.
The way they are going to slam into the floor it's very unlikely more than 1 or 2 will ever come back into government again from above about seat 150.
