| Oof. Big defection Conservatives to Reform on 12:02 - Jan 12 by Dubtractor | Yeah, funny how reform are needed to fight the broken system, and they are doing it by taking in the politicians who most embody that system from the tories. Anyone who honestly believes Reform are anti establishment is a fool. |

Looks like the Tories are launching a hostile takeover of Reform. |  |

Zahawi, as an experienced former Minister, fits that bill and as an ethnic minority, will help present Reform as non-racist. |
It does show the tightrope they've got to walk, adding enough experience to look credible whilst maintaining their desired image as an anti-establishment party. |  |
