Lee Anderson has told GB News that Reform UK is the “home for real British patriots” after the shock defection of “big fish” Robert Jenrick yesterday.
The Reform UK Chief Whip rejected claims the party is “Tory 2.0”, arguing the Conservatives abandoned their voters by failing to cut taxes, shrink the state and tackle mass illegal migration.
He hailed Robert Jenrick’s defection as a major boost, saying Reform now has “six big fish” with the experience and personality needed to govern.
Mr Anderson said Reform is building a serious governing force, branding the party a “rehoming service” for Conservatives who no longer recognise their former party.
He added that Reform UK believes in “healthy competition” and is already laying the groundwork for a future Government by drawing in experienced figures from across public life.
