This week on 'Politics on Draught' we are joined by special guest: Conservative MP Elliot Colburn. Before the interview James and Kartik talk about Jeremy Corbyn and it being announced he wont stand as a Labour candidate in 2024. They also talk about the resignation of Nicola Sturgeon and what it means for the SNP.
Elliot Colburn, 30, is the MP for Carshalton and Wallington. A constituency in the south London Borough of Sutton. Elliot was elected in 2019 in the Boris Johnson cohort. He took the constituency after 20 years of Liberal Democrat rule. During the interview we discuss being an MP but also an openly Gay MP and how his experiences have shaped him. We talk Brexit and how it has impacted the Conservative Party, Rishi Sunak and whether he has led with Integrity and Professionalism, and finally an in-depth chat about Elliot's main campaign: to stop the expansion of ULEZ.
