Conservative Danny Kruger Defects to Nigel Farage’s Reform UK

Conservative MP Danny Kruger has defected to Nigel Farage's Reform UK party, the latest in a series of defections from the opposition. Farage, the former leader of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), announced Kruger's move on Monday. This comes as a blow to the Conservative Party, which is facing growing internal divisions and a string of high-profile departures. Kruger, who has been a Conservative MP since 2019, cited his dissatisfaction with the party's direction and alignment with Farage's vision for the country as reasons for his decision. The defection highlights the continuing political turmoil in the UK, as smaller parties like Reform UK seek to capitalize on discontent with the mainstream political establishment.
