Nigel Farage makes shock prediction Tory MPs will defect to Reform
Nigel Farage predicts a handful of Tory MPs will defect to Reform within a year as he vowed to turn it into an electoral powerhouse.
The party leader is open to Suella Braverman making the switch and insisted several Red Wall Tories would still have seats if they had made the leap.
Mr Farage is promising to be laser-focused in turning the party into a huge organisation powered by members as he plots to win from “Kent to Newcastle”.
He told the Express: “There is an awful lot to do, I’m not deluding myself about that, but there’s an appetite, an appetite for something very different than, let’s be frank, two rather dull middle managers.”
Mrs Braverman is being tipped to switch party despite having been returned on a Conservative ticket just a couple of weeks ago.

As of just before 10am on Tuesday morning (July 23), exactly £215,865 had been raised – dwarfing the initial target of just £3,000.

Editorial 23 July 2024.
Tuesday’s front pages, for the second day, are heavily dominated by US politics. Many broadsheets turn their focus to Vice President Kamala Harris as millions of dollars in donations to the Democrats have started to pour in, and Democratic heavyweights throw their support behind the VP.
The UK tabloids are less focused on US politics and look a little closer to home with various domestic stories featured as the leads.
The back pages are focused on Premier League gossip and the upcoming Paris Olympics.
