The political party Change UK, which was formed earlier this year by former Labour and Conservative MPs wishing to push for a so-called People's Vote on any Brexit deal agreed by MPs, has lost six of its 11 members. BBC political correspondent Ben Wright said there had "clearly been turmoil in the party's ranks for number of weeks". One member, the party's deputy leader Jo Swinson, said she had resigned because it would not be possible "to continue as an effective member in good standing with such a toxic environment."
