"I am sad for the Conservative Party. I could see that I have not changed but the party has become less and less what I believe in. We let people down over what Brexit meant on laws, money and borders. We took back control but we did not do anything about it. Reform is about changing the system - they won't change unless they do it differently."
"We have had a year of stasis and drift and the sham unity that comes from not doing anything bold or difficult or controversial and the result is in the polls. And those voters aren't coming back, and every day, more and more people are joining them in deserting the party that has failed."
"I have joined. My husband joined a few months ago and I joined a month ago. The [Reform] party needs a lot of experience of people who know the system and can talk about this."
Maria Caulfield, a full-time NHS nurse and former Conservative minister, defected to Reform UK after her husband joined the party, becoming the 13th former Conservative to join. Sitting MP Danny Kruger also defected and will help Reform prepare for government, describing his switch as personally painful and warning that the Tory Party is over. Caulfield criticized the Conservatives for failing to deliver on Brexit-related laws, money and borders, and urged right-minded Conservatives to back Reform. Kruger cited a year of stasis and drift and urged colleagues to consider defecting as voters desert the party.
