anyone read the times on line
2 Tory MPs "seriously considering" defecting to UKIP says @timmontgomerie (Times) thetim.es/HzzrYe (£)
which 2 ? so many candidates
any of the 100 or so who rebelled on the euro vote would be candidates but my favourite (if true) would be Mark Pritchard.

I'd forgotten he was still an MP! I guess he doesn't have much to lose. Hopefully there is another as per the rumours

I mean Cash could have gone any time after being labelled a 'bastard' and now picks now when in govt and into the Local elections, great timing.
Now who is the other ?

Haven't seen his statement or anything, but much movement to UKIP from Tories at the moment is on issues other than Europe - notably nanny-statism

I wonder about richard shepherd on this Pete, very similar kind of person to Cash and his seat goes and especially the power base of Streetly Ward.

I would be delighted if true for obvious reasons.

Hmmm, does this at least explain why Twitter has been pretty much unavailable for the last hour or so??

I heard it from Simon Cooke retweeted from someone else ha ha always blame someone else. Nethertheless Tim M has opened up the discussion on who it could be if any, keeps people going during the recess. If someone defected now it can only be to do max damage to the tories at election time

Indeed Dok but a dangerous game for someone like tim M to play only so many times you can cry wolf to force a core issue for you.
