Conservative party Chief Whip Wendy Morton has reportedly left the party.
Sources have reported that Ms Morton quit the party following chaos surrounding a vote on fracking, which had been declared a “confidence vote” in the government.
Her departure will represent a huge blow for Liz Truss after Home Secretary Suella Braverman left the party just hours previously.
The government won the vote by 96 votes, with 230 votes against and 326 for.
According to Byline Times’ Adam Bienkov, Labour’s Chris Bryant said he “saw members being physically manhandled” and “bullied” in the voting lobbies as chaos erupted over the vote.
