🏫Conservatives🏫
When I joined Reform UK, I did so because I believed the Conservative Party had lost its way in government, and I wanted to help bring about change.
While Reform has had some successes in Lancashire, I have come to the view that, nationally, it remains primarily a party of protest rather than one preparing to govern.
Kemi Badenoch has been honest about the mistakes made by the last Conservative government and is working to renew the party around core Conservative principles: supporting enterprise, delivering efficient public services, controlling public spending responsibly and creating the conditions for economic growth.
For me, politics is about delivering results, not simply making a point. At a time of economic uncertainty and growing international challenges, Britain needs serious, responsible government.
That is why I have today joined the Conservative Party. I look forward to working with colleagues to serve the residents of West Lancashire and help rebuild a strong, principled Conservative Party.
