Caulfield says ‘the future is Reform’ as second prominent Tory in a week leaves for Nigel Farage’s party
Maria Caulfield, a former Tory health minister, has joined Reform UK, GB News reports. They say she is the 13th former Tory MP to switch, GB News says.
Caulfield told the broadcaster:
If you are Conservative right-minded, then the future is Reform. The country is going to change a lot. The same people who thought that Brexit would not happen think that Reform will not happen. They are in for a shock.
GB News says the other former Tory MPs who are now Reform UK members are: Lee Anderson, Nadine Dorries, Sir Jake Berry, Adam Holloway, Anne Marie Morris, David Jones, Marco Longhi, Ross Thomson, Andrea Jenkyns, Aidan Burley, Alan Amos and Henry Smith. Their list does not include Danny Kruger, the only MP elected as a Tory at the last election to defect. He signed up with Nigel Farage yesterday.
