Watch: Andrew Bridgen stripped of Tory whip over Covid vaccine comments

A Tory MP has lost the whip for comparing the Covid vaccination rollout to the Holocaust on Wednesday.

Andrew Bridgen also appeared to falsely blame the increase in excess deaths the UK has seen on the jab.

The MP for North West Leicestershire, who is currently suspended from the Commons, tweeted: “We know the ‘vaccines’ are causing serious harms and now it’s becoming increasingly clear how they are doing it. No wonder so many people are ill since vaccination.

“As one consultant cardiologist said to me this is the biggest crime against humanity since the Holocaust.”
