This could mark the beginning of a significant shift of Tory members to Reform. Anxious Conservatives are on edge, anticipating who might be the next to leave after a shadow minister made a surprising switch to Reform.
Nigel Farage introduced Danny Kruger as his latest addition during an enthusiastic press conference in Westminster, where the MP declared that the Conservative Party is ‘over.’ The East Wiltshire MP, who is the son of Bake Off host Prue Leith, is the most recent individual to join the insurgent group. Although Kemi Badenoch attempted to downplay the defection, party insiders acknowledged that Mr. Kruger’s connections set him apart and cautioned about the potential for ‘panic.’
“We’ve experienced a year of stagnation and inaction, with a false sense of unity stemming from a lack of bold or controversial decisions. The consequences are evident in the polls, and those who have left are unlikely to return. Each day, more individuals are abandoning a party that has failed.” The former shadow work and pensions minister previously managed Robert Jenrick’s leadership campaign when he was defeated by Mrs. Badenoch last year.
