Liz Truss must have Conservative whip removed over conspiracy theories

EMBARGO: Immediate release

Responding to Liz Truss' latest round of media interviews to promote her new book, Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper MP said:

"Rishi Sunak must withdraw the Conservative whip from Liz Truss. 

"Sunak cannot have a Conservative MP on his backbenches who peddles conspiracy theories, and is frankly becoming a national embarrassment on the global stage. 

"By allowing Liz Truss to remain a Conservative MP, Rishi Sunak is yet again proving himself too weak to govern. The Conservative party has now reached a new low, where conspiracy theories are allowed to fester in their parliamentary party."
