Suella Braverman Declaring Election 'Over' Gives Her "Leeway To Defect To Reform"

Conservative commentator Benedict Spence says Suella Braverman declaring the election ‘over’ gives her “leeway if she decides to defect to Reform”.
Ms Braverman blamed the situation on a fracture within the Conservative Party resulting from a rise in Nigel Farage’s Reform UK.
Ms Braverman said the Tories need “a searingly honest post-match analysis”, “because the fight for the soul of the Conservative Party will determine whether we allow Starmer a clear run at destroying our country for good or having a chance to redeem it in due course.
Benedict says: “That would be more beneficial for her career, because she would be the second biggest fish in that pond.”

The government has always been a 2 party system. It will always be Con servative or Liebour. The Tory party didn't thank Farage for giving them the majority to stay in number 10 in the last election. Stood some of his candidates down and nothing for it. Reform will change its name in time with Nigel at the helm and sitting in number 10. Watch this space. In the words of Farage "You're not laughing now, are you" The educated Conservative party will be reborn with a change in values.

I don't get why any right-wing Tories don't just defect to Reform, yes.
