Former Conservative chairwoman Sayeeda Warsi has resigned the Tory whip with a stinging blast at the party over its attitude towards Muslims. The former minister, who is now a peer, has long been at odds with the party over what she once said was 'institutional islamophobia' in its ranks.
But in a post on X today she said that the current Tories were now 'far removed from the party I joined and served in cabinet' as the party's first female Muslim minister.
It comes ahead of an election to choose a new leader in the wake of its defeat by Labour on July 4.
The campaign is expected to see a leader from the right of the party installed, after it lost millions of votes to Nigel Farage's Reform UK.
