I would have thought an insurgent party like Reform would have prioritised new/outside voices but apparently not. It seems obvious that Jenrick, Zahawi etc will go straight into high-profile roles within the party.
Maybe people will enjoy the drama of the heel turns - I think the danger is that these defectors just look like the usual opportunistic, disingenuous politicians.
You can’t have it both ways, you can’t criticise Reform for having complete unknowns balls up running county councils and then slag them off to try and get Tory figures who’ve been in government.
Indeed. Why take on complete unknowns to balls-up running the country when you can have people who've already got experience of ballsing up running the country.
