Thinking it through, the reasons for his defection are idiotic.
He wants to belong to a party that is affiliated to the EPP (so he joins one that’s affiliated to the European Socialists);
He doesn’t like Cameron’s line on grammar schools (so joins a party that wants to abolish them);
He didn’t like Greg Clark’s praise for Polly Toynbee (so joins a party that admires Polly Toynbee);
He is strongly in favour of the Iraq War (so joins a party whose Deputy Leader said they should apologise over Iraq - though she denies it now);
He doesn’t like Cameron’s policies on pensions or the family (so joins a party whose policies on pensions and the family are far removed from his own);
plus he favours fox-hunting (which Labour voted to ban) and is opposed to homosexual equality (so joins a party that favours it).
It’s a bit like falling out with someone, chopping off your right arm, waving it at them and yelling “there, you bastard, that’ll show you.”
