Nadine Dorries has defected to Reform UK in another coup for Nigel Farage. The former Cabinet minister declared that the Conservative Party is “dead” as she announced her move on the eve of Reform’s conference.

She told the Daily Mail: “The Tory Party is dead. Its members now need to think the unthinkable and look to the future.” Reform leader Mr Farage said he was “absolutely delighted” to welcome Ms Dorries to his insurgent party.

He added: “She is a hugely successful politician, author and columnist and will be a great boost to our campaign to win the next general election.”
