Tory MP Lucy Allan Resigns to Support Reform UK Candidate

Allan steps down from Conservative Party to back Alan Adams in Telford, leading to immediate suspension.

Lucy Allan, outgoing MP for Telford, quits Conservative Party to endorse Reform UK's Alan Adams.
Her resignation follows the Conservative Party's decision to suspend her for supporting a rival candidate.
Allan has represented Telford since 2015 and announced last year she would not seek re-election.
She argues Adams is the best candidate to prevent a Labour win in the constituency.
The move is seen as a setback for Rishi Sunak's campaign efforts.
