Badenoch must rule out Rupert Lowe joining Conservatives
27 May 2025
EMBARGO: Immediate Release
Responding to reports that Rupert Lowe is ‘open’ to joining the Conservatives, Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader and Treasury Spokesperson, Daisy Cooper MP, said:
“Badenoch needs to urgently confirm that she won’t allow Rupert Lowe to join the Conservatives. Anything less would show that the Conservatives have moved even further to the extremes.
“This surely also has to be the last straw for Robert Jenrick’s underhand leadership campaign. Badenoch needs to sack him or accept that she is too weak to control her own front bench.”
