He is just the latest in a growing number of disaffected Tories turning to Nigel Farage’s party.
Former Conservative chairman Sir Jake Berry tells The Daily T why, after 25 years of Conservative Party membership and 14 years as the Tory MP for Rossendale and Darwen, he has decided to join Reform.
As well as acknowledging his role as a senior Tory in the failure of “broken Britain”, Berry attacks the Labour Government, accusing Starmer of gross incompetence: “the Conservative Party failed to sort it out over 14 years. I think the Labour party’s done a worse job in 14 months.”
Berry also explains why it took him losing his seat to realise that Nigel Farage is the only man who can fix Britain and why Kemi Badenoch is “toast”.
The former MP also tells all on migration, taxation, spending and why he has changed his tune on net zero.
