Sounds like a soon to be ex-tory MP with honest comments like these once Boris hears about this
Here come the long knives
While he’s saying some good things here, Harper is also the MP responsible for the “Go Back Home” vans years back and was a pretty significant figure in implementing the horror show that is PIP. He’s just upset some charlatan has dropped the mask and besmirched the good name of his party, rather than any sort of moral outrage at the rape of our nation.
