I like the move. But of course that's because I'm anti-Conservative and I see this as a big blow to both their chances of overthrowing the gov't and their chances of doing well at the next election. One of their higher profile moderates abandons the party. That's a big blow and could make their party look even further right than before. They could lose quite a bit of support from the less socially conservative Tory supporters.
Obviously Conservative supporters will tend to crucify her and be bitter about it. Makes sense.
Very interesting development.
