Jonathan Oxley joins the Lib Dems

"Our communities and country desperately need the decency that characterises the Liberal Democrats". Sorry, Mr Oxley, the Lib Dems have scandals of their own. They (and the Green Party) were desperately short of funds when they started accepting money from Ferring Pharmaceuticals, makers of puberty blockers - for exploiting "gender-confused" girls (and some boys). Do you remember when Jo Swinson was leader? And she could not define the word "woman"?  There is a reason for this willful blindness: approx £1.4M:https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/puberty-blocker-drug-firm-donated-cash-to-lib-dems-cf3x77nh3

In case anyone else was wondering who he is - "Jonathan Oxley sat as a Tory on the council for four years until 2010 when he represented Elthorne ward. He is going to contest the Hanger Hill ward where three of the eight Conservative councillors currently have seats including the group leader Gregory Stafford…"

In the days of Jeremy Thorpe's leadership, most people said they'd  be buggered if they joined the Liberals.

Why shouldn’t they accept donations from the makers of puberty blockers? They are approved drugs prescribed by doctors aren’t they?  Or are they illegal?
