Ex-Tory minister Nadine Dorries defects to Reform UK

Former Conservative minister Nadine Dorries has defected to Reform UK. Speaking to the Daily Mail, the ex-MP for Mid-Bedfordshire said: "The Tory Party is dead. Its members now need to think the unthinkable and look to the future." Dorries served as culture secretary and as a health minister under Boris Johnson, of whom she was a close ally. She is the latest in a string of defections from the Conservatives to Reform UK, including former Welsh Secretary David Jones and ex-Tory Chairman Sir Jake Berry.
