Her views

Her political position is described as 'right wing', but there is no indication of any particular views, let alone any that pertain to her crossing the floor. Can we expand this aspect please? Onanoff (talk) 16:11, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The ostensible reason for here defection was that Sunak was not doing enough to stop the boats: ""From small boats to biosecurity, Rishi Sunak’s government is failing to keep our borders safe and secure," she said. "Lives are being lost in the English Channel while small boat arrivals are once again at record levels. It is clear they have failed to keep our borders secure and cannot be trusted."" (Note the quick change from "we have failed to keep our borders secure and cannot be trusted.") Martinevans123 (talk) 16:26, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Marital status

As regards our subject's marital status, an article in The Times of 8 May 2024 states 'It is not clear whether she is still married to him' (i.e. Mr Elphicke), which I presume means that the writer is unsure whether she ever went through with the divorce that she'd announced. Whether or not The Times is a reliable source is a question that I'm happy to leave to wiser heads than mine! Niggle1892 (talk) 18:34, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Really? I wonder how she managed this: "In July 2020, she sold the story of her divorce to The Sun tabloid newspaper for £25,000.^[1] Martinevans123 (talk) 18:39, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This tweet seems to indicate the divorce - "It ends my 25 year marriage to the only man I have ever loved.", although it is far from legal proof. Blume (talk) 18:42, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
