Reform UK are presenting themselves as an insurgent political party, yet their adoption of former Conservatives shows they are nothing more than the 'Tories in disguise'.
This tracker was last updated on 30/04/2026 - Total defections: 177 (three of which have since left Reform UK)
As his resignation from the Conservative Party was in 1992, Nigel Farage himself was not counted but having been a Conservative member and donor as recently as 2018, Richard Tice has been. The ease with which Conservatives are finding a home in the Reform UK party shows who the party serves and the apparent acceptance in the party of incompetence and failure.
Vote for Reform UK and get the very worst of the Tories...
