<\/p>\nTory MPs who refuse to get behind Brexit should \u201csod off to the Lib Dems\u201d, Dame Andrea Jenkyns has said.<\/p>\n
Taking aim at Damian Green after he warned against Tory MPs \u201cleaning too far to the right\u201d, the deputy chair of the Brexit-supporting European Research Group claimed \u201cOne Nation\u201d policies belonged with the Liberal Democrats.<\/p>\n
She told Patrick Christys on GB News: \u201cThis One Nation Group make up the majority of the Parliamentary party but these are the ones who didn\u2019t want Brexit, who didn\u2019t want Boris, who didn\u2019t want Liz Truss, so they\u2019re not really in tune with the British public.<\/p>\n
\u201cIsn\u2019t Damian Green the one who got deselected by his own association back in February?<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think the Tory party are going far enough [to the right] actually. If you look at the group, they\u2019ve never accepted Liz [Truss], they never accepted Boris and it\u2019s about time that we started having policies that were in our manifesto and that speak to people.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you look at 2015, which is when I was elected, that was Cameron, who is back in Government, and I have said that I like Cameron, but not for this time and place.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut back in 2015, we only won six seats off the Labour party with this One Nation type of Conservatism. To me, some of these policies belong with the Lib Dems.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was in 2019 we won all these seats off Labour so we need to go more centre-right; it\u2019s obvious if we want to keep these seats. This is what we got elected on.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey clearly want to obliterate the centre-right out of the party, which is why they got rid of the last two leaders<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to stop net zero, I want strong borders, I want strong policing like the 80s where they used to drag protestors off the streets.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want strong policies and Damian Green, as I said, got deselected himself but you can see it happening with other MPs or them not winning their seat if they carry on down this road of Lib Demism rather than true Conservatism, in my books.\u201d<\/p>\n
Responding to the question that some might say that she is a fringe radical\u2019, she said: \u201cSod off to the Lib Dems.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dame Andrea\u2019s blistering intervention comes after Mr Green suggested the Tories were learning too far towards the right in a bid to win back voters.<\/p>\n
In a radio interview on Sunday, the MP for Ashford said: \u201cIf you read all the papers this morning, then practically every tax in the country is going to be cut on Wednesday…I hate to spoil everyone’s day, but I don’t think that’s going to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n
Stephen Hammond, the MP for Wimbledon and a member of the One Nation group, said: \u201cFor too long we have been too quiet and these ideas are the fresh start of renewal for our caucus.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cOur voice should be heard because our voice resonates with the voters. One Nation Conservatism must be the leading light for our party, ensuring sensible, pragmatic politics leads our party. Without this, we risk falling into an unrecoverable position with most of the voters.\u201d<\/p>\n
But Dame Andrea has called for the Tory Party to find its true values again to \u201ckick start the economy\u201d and put Thatcherism at its heart.<\/p>\n
