Loading ...British ex-Tory MEP joins Lib Dems
An ex-senior Tory MEP, expelled in a row over the party’s new allies in Europe, has joined the Lib Dems.
Edward McMillan-Scott, who once headed the Tory grouping in Brussels, was unhappy with David Cameron’s decision to re-align the party in Europe.
Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg said he was "delighted" to welcome an MEP who was "respected… across Europe".
Mr McMillan-Scott said he was "pleased" to join the party. </p
