The Telegraph reports:
Andrew Bridgen has been expelled from the Conservative Party after he made controversial comments about coronavirus vaccines.
Mr Bridgen was stripped of the Tory whip and forced to sit as an independent MP in January after he tweeted claims that Covid vaccines were the “biggest crime against humanity since the Holocaust”.
A Conservative Party spokesman confirmed this afternoon that Mr Bridgen has now been formally kicked out of the party. The spokesman said: “Mr Bridgen was expelled from the Conservative Party on 12th April following the recommendation of a disciplinary panel. He has 28 days from this date to appeal.”

All you have to do for the UK is change Robert F Kennedy for Andrew Bridgen. The playbook was exactly the same and now Tucker has been cancelled also. It’s now a dystopian world we are living in and we have to do something about it for both ourselves and our children.

My expulsion from the Conservative Party under false pretences only confirms the toxic culture which plagues our political system.
