I honestly don’t know who Reform can be taken seriously.

Impressive that Farage has managed to find an individual almost as vile as he is. Surprised it took her so long

They’re all just Tories at this point.
Tories that Reform were criticising

Oh my goodness truly the rats are fleeing the ship.
Imagine that though, a party of “*totally-not Tories*”, comprised, almost entirely, of Tories.
I’m sure the addition of an ethnically Indian brown woman will go down like a cup of cold sick with their target demographic.

Ah yes… joining the ‘totally not just the Tory party’.

They really are dredging up the bottom of a cesspit and marketing who they add as gold, aren’t they? Worst of the Tory party meets the worst of society.

Tory jumps sinking ship to continuity tories. Colour me shocked.

I cant wait for Reform to really shake up politics with their membership of ex-MPs from mainstream politics.
Some of which directly presided over the departments that utterly failed to control things like immigration, crime, prisons and the economy
SpottedDicknCustard on
Short term gain for Reform as they pick up another seat but taking on Troy dregs is doing nothing but dilute their appeal.
Hungry_Horace on
So it’s now crystal clear – Reform are the “Continuity Tories”.
I find it so odd that the swivel-eyed right of the Tory party are FINALLY abandoning ship, when the party has the most right-wing leader it’s ever had, who was voted in by them.
I guess it just serves to underline that these moves are being made for nothing more than naked self-preservation.
Vote Reform get Tory should now be the mantra of every other political party.
Edit: which makes me think.. how long till Boris defects? None more venal and self-interested than him.

Surprised she didn’t jump earlier. One of the pure evil Tories.

Award for the most unsuprising headline of 2026 so far. The only thing that’s suprised me was that she hadn’t defected earlier.

Is anyone actually surprised?
Well good luck Farage because as soon as that lot smells blood they are coming for the crown.

Tell me again how Reform isnt a retirement home for failed Tories….

Perfect timing to distract ppl from the Labour infighting. What a terrible decision.
What happened to that Labour defection they were gonna announce.

How many more Tories need to join before their supporters think they might not be the fresh anti-estsblishment alternative they pretended they were?
Krabsandwich on
didn’t Suella say she would never join Reform oh well there you go then she can’t even tell the truth about that. If Reform was a Left Wing party the Trotskyist Entryism alarm bells would be ringing off the wall by now.
If Farage takes anymore Tories he will find himself in trouble I suspect in 5 years Reform and the Conservatives will merge and Nigel will wonder where it went wrong.

5/8 Reform MPs are now former Tory MPs by my count.

What happened with immigration when she was Home Secretary?

And this is why Farage isnt going to be PM. Reform is literally just a renamed Tory party.

Guess I am now a reformed conservative…
Guess I’ll have to sit the next election out, suppose I could go with the Monster Raving Loony Party.
£10 says Truss joins in the next two weeks. At that point…
This is going to be a repeat of the last election, all Starmer had to do, was not fuck up enough to win. Everyone else is railroading themselves in the meantime.
Seriously what is Cruella Braverman going to bring? More boat arrivals?
MondeyMondey on
Party made up of Farage, a load of people who have publicly said the n word in the last two weeks, and every Tory rat leaving a sinking ship. Bold new vision!
GhostRiders on
This is only going to help the Tories in the long run.
Kemi can just point to Reform and say “These are the very same people that you voted out due to incompetence over 14 years in charge”

It’s almost as if Farage would rather remain on the sidelines grifting rather than actually govern.

The Reform party is becoming the retirement home for ex-Tory MPs. How are Reform members taking this? Because these ex-Tory MPs were in power during the last 14 years of the Tory Regime. How can they bring about change?
g1umo on
if Reform wins the election it just proves this country is irredeemable. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me 100x and you get the British electorate
Definitely_Human01 on
Does anyone else think that defection should result in an immediate by-election?
I think most people give a very large weighting to a candidate’s party when voting, so a change in party may very well cause them to feel their MP no longer properly represent them.
The1Lemon on
Looking forward to when Kemi Badenoch defects to Reform and we end up with a very confusing party conference season.
PornFilterRefugee on
If you’re a reform voter why would you vote for them at this point? They’ve literally just become the exact same people Reform were a protest vote against
Wise-Youth2901 on
The left over Conservative Party should move back in the direction of middle class professional Britain. Compete more with the Lib Dems than Reform. The Tory right is going to Reform anyway… The Tories should focus on winning back Tory leaning southern England.
EolAncalimon on
Didn’t think Farage was going to take Braverman or Truss due to the potential damage to his party?
Reform really is just the Bastard Tory party now, all the useless failed upwards Tories from the last government have now defected to reform
It’s the conform party now.
I have never hoped a party would fail in the polls as badly as this lot. honestly, at this point, i hope Kemi Badenochs Tories beat them in the election and i fucking hate the Tories, but i hate Reform and Nigel Grifter Farage even more.

Of course you feel at home, you’re surrounded by everyone you used to work with! 🤣

If reform gets in and these same Tory back benchers start moaning and blocking progressive reforms, they should be fired. I’ve yet to meet, see or hear of a politician that is actually suited for the position. Wankers, the lot of them

Gosh, these people were completely free of principles when they were in government and absolutely nothing has changed. Power-hungry, morally bankrupt, libertarian small government gargoyles who will bring absolutely nothing good to the poorest and most vulnerable in our society.
