Liberal Democrat MP Cameron Thomas arrested and suspended from party
The party also suspended his membership as police continue an investigation into his arrest, with no details made public.
- Liberal Democrat MP Cameron Thomas was arrested by Gloucestershire Police on Wednesday night and suspended from the party pending the outcome of a police investigation.
- Gloucestershire Police have released no details regarding the reasons for the arrest. A party spokesperson stated, 'We are unable to comment further while the police investigation is ongoing.'
- Thomas previously ended a 23-year Royal Air Force career before becoming the MP for Tewkesbury, with service including deployments to Iraq, the Falklands, and Oman.
- In March, Thomas traveled to Kyiv to deliver aid, resulting in his inclusion on a Russian stop list, which the MP said gave him 'the greatest possible endorsement' of his parliamentary activity.
- Thomas previously criticized Elon Musk, alleging the billionaire's interest in the Southport riots was based on 'nostalgia for white supremacy,' adding scrutiny to his current parliamentary suspension.
