Three-parent baby plans will lose Tory votes, new poll finds
Plans to allow the creation of three-parent babies are set to cost the Conservative Party votes at the upcoming European elections, a new poll has found.
More than a quarter (27 per cent) of those surveyed said they are less likely to vote Tory because of the proposals, whereas just three per cent are more inclined to back the Party over the issue.
Parliament is to debate allowing the controversial technique – which uses IVF to create a baby with DNA from three parents – later this year.
