Tory insiders said he had been put-off the idea by the Lib Dems’ new policy to revoke Article 50 without holding a referendum.

And it would swell the Lib Dems’ number of MPs to 18 – six more than they won at the last election.

There was also speculation last night that former Tory Heidi Allen could become the latest MP to join the resurgent anti-Brexit party.

Mr Clark would be the second sacked Tory rebel to join the party to join the Lib Dems within three days and would also join fellow ex-Tory MPs Sam Gyimah, Sarah Wollaston and Philip Lee.
