Bradley Thomas MP has voted to refer Prime Minister Keir Starmer to the Privileges Committee.
Yesterday (April 28th), the House of Commons debated and voted on the Conservative’s motion to refer Keir Starmer to the Privileges Committee - Labour MPs had the chance to put party politics aside and do the right thing - they failed to do so.
Starmer said three times full due process was followed on the appointment of Peter Mandelson, and twice claimed that pressure was not put on officials. This has been shown to be incorrect.
Starmer has lied to Parliament and the British people, he sacked his own officials to cover for himself and put our national security at risk.
To save his own skin, Keir Starmer threatened his MPs with the loss of their jobs unless they helped cover up his misleading statements to Parliament. It is a disgrace that 333 Labour MPs chose to be complicit in that cover up.
333 Labour MPs chose to prop up this government that is falling apart at the seams rather than put the country first. This is the day that people saw they believe there’s one rule for Labour and another for everyone else.
Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister, Darren Jones, refused to repeat Keir Starmer’s claims that there ‘was no pressure whatsoever’ placed on the Foreign Office by No10. His effort to instead ‘clarify’ what the Prime Minister had said was damning.
Nigel Farage let Keir Starmer off the hook by failing to vote for the Conservatives' motion. It is clear that the Conservatives are the only party holding Labour to account and that is why the country needs Kemi Badenoch’s Conservatives.
Following the vote, Bradley said:
"This evening I voted for the Prime Minister to be referred to the Privileges Committee for misleading Parliament.
"This is about Starmer telling the truth when Parliament asks and being accountable for his own decisions.
"Starmer whipped his MPs to vote against this in order to try to save himself."
