More details

Anna Soubery Conservative, jumped ship to form Change UK. Angela James jumped from the Labour party to the Lib Dems . Luciana Berger jumped from Labour to Change UK, then to the Lib Dems. Philip Lee, conservative jumps ship to join the Lib Dems.
These are just a few, many more have done the same and therefore do not represent the electorate who voted for them!
