Suella Braverman joins Reform UK, third Tory defector in days

What happened: Suella Braverman has left the Conservative Party to join Nigel Farage's Reform UK, becoming the third Tory MP to defect in the past eleven days.

Why it matters:

  • This signals growing challenges within the Conservative Party ahead of upcoming elections.
  • It could impact party dynamics and voter support in the UK political landscape.
