REFORM MP James McMurdock has voluntarily removed the party whip from himself. The MP called the party's chief whip Lee Anderson to inform him of the decision.

McMurdock has resigned the whip pending the outcome of an investigation. Chief whip Lee Anderson released a statement but the party has offered no further comment. Reform UK chief whip Lee Anderson said that McMurdock 'removed the party whip from himself pending the outcome of an investigation into allegations that are likely to be published by a national newspaper." His statement went on to read: "The allegations relate to business propriety during the pandemic and before he became an MP."
