DAN HODGES: The Tories and Reform MUST unite. I know what will happen if they don’t – it’s what Keir Starmer is praying for…

My colleague from Daily Mail, Nadine Dorries – as it is – breaks a political storm.

First of all, by announcing the dramatic flaw to reform on these pages. Then expressing the desire for the election agreement between Nigel Farage and former Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

In a special edition of Alas Vine & Hitchens Podcasts, “I think that if a optional to make people’s lives better, both men can find a way to host each other’s egos and exist for the sake of the country and find a way to find a way to exist together.”

The reaction of Dorries’s new political bedmates was fast and ruthless.

Zia Yusuf, the head of the reform of the reform, said, ‘We would not welcome Boris Johnson’. This will never happen. Boris Johnson was one of the worst PMs in history. ‘

And at some level, Yusuf’s high fifty response can be understood. What else would he want from another Dar from his party, the worker and the fourth place behind him?

Last week I spent a few days at the Reform Conference in Birmingham. It was managed professionally and was full of energy.

Some of the delegates showed light eccentricities, as in every political meeting. But the people I talked to were engaged, articulated and tied to their case. And a worker or Torah conference would not be prominent.

Therefore, reform leadership husbands were not completely misleaded. In particular, they are currently leading an important double -digit survey.

But if I were Farage and Lieutenant, I wouldn’t be so fast to easily reject Nadine’s strategy. Because, despite the ongoing explosion of Keir Starmer’s bandwood, a Tora/Reform Pact can prove that it is the only way to dismiss labor.

It is true that the surface reform is slippery and polished in the conference. But something bad was mixing behind the scenes.

In fact, behind the curtain, as in the lights on the main stage. One of the opening speakers was ASEEM Malhotra, the adviser of Maverick US Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy.

Farage has a skillful political touch and is rightly praised for the ability to take the pulse of the nation. However, Johnson was the man who used the increasing discontent of the voters and transformed him into a successful political program as a voter.

And as it emerges, a crank. “Covid vaccines are likely to be an important factor in cancers in the royal family”, explained to the conference without evidence to support this strange and dangerous claim.

Malhotra was followed by Lucy Connolly on stage, and recently after tweeting the hotels of immigrants, she was released from prison after a conviction of racial hatred. When he went out, he was introduced as ‘England’s favorite political prisoner’.

This will come to most England as news.

A survey conducted by more partners immediately after its release, found that 52 percent of the questioned is true and even soft, and only 35 percent thought that it was very harsh. Only 18 percent thought that mainstream politicians should openly relate to Connolly.

There is a balance that must be balanced between uncontrolled migration by the anger of the legitimate people, the cost of the life crisis and the open contempt shown to people working by the British elites, and the populist wave embracing more toxic elements circulating around British politics.

And Reform’s exhibition in Birmingham showed that despite their progress, they are still struggling to moderate their brands properly and calibrate.

Farage has a skillful political touch and is rightly praised for the ability to take the pulse of the nation.

However, Johnson was the man who effectively used the increasing discontent of the voters and transformed him into a successful political program as a voter.

If Farage is currently transforming medium -term folk anger into a average of polling in low 30s, Boris was able to support 44 percent of the British people.

The protest on the street or an angry reference on social media, but the real crosses placed on real ballots have shifted to real, battered votes.

Moreover, Boris was able to build a real, comprehensive election coalition. Red wall workers. Real Blue Tories. Disappointed Central Englands. And he did this, not with anger or painful expression, but one of the optimism and inclusion.

In other words, if Farage wants to slap the hand of the friendship presented by one of the closest allies of Boris, he can do it. But you should pay attention to that he didn’t cut your nose despite his face. And in the process of cutting England’s nose.

Stack

The same applies to conservatives who continue to turn their backs on the possibility of a conservative/reform alliance.

Kemi Badenoch was almost impossible after his party’s 2024 election tremor. But I believe that while a political crisis, he could not claim himself at the center of the national debate.

And after the Angela Rayner scandal – and Badenoch’s inability to suppress the prime minister last week in the inquiry – TORY MPs began to be published for a substitute. “This cannot continue,” he said, a senior conservative for me last week.

Good morning my baby. But who’s waiting for the wings?

Robert Jenrick is energetic but irregular. James is wise statesman but anonymous. While emptying Badenoch, Tor deputies are the risk of jumping directly from the frying pan to the angry fire of voters who have not forgiven them for chaos and shifts of the altar of Liz Truss/Rishi.

Kemi Badenoch was almost impossible after his party’s 2024 election tremor. But I believe that when combined with the political crisis, I believe that he cannot claim himself at the center of the national debate, Dan Hodges

Reform is looking for a political earthquake. Tories is praying for a political game exchanger. And an official agreement between the two sides can prove that it is the only way to deliver these things.

Yes, Starmer’s popularity fell into unprecedented depths. But before the next election, the abolition of the worker as the leader is increasingly and more.

Chance

At what point all bets are closed. The easy charm of Wes Streeting or the polished northern originality of Andy Burnham can change the political mood. A global economic promotion can alleviate a part of financial pressure.

The further questioning and examination of the policy program of the reform and the compliance with wider management will inevitably raise suspicion among the voters who are exhausted by chaos chaos challenged by the two sides.

It can be understood that there are many people who are careful against an alliance in both Tory and reform camps. However, there is another group that is more concerned about the possibility of merger or other agreement between the two competitors.

Labor force. As a minister said to me a few weeks ago, ‘As long as it is divided right, we still have a chance. But if someone finds a way to bring them together, we’ll finish. Probably for good. ‘

Currently, the transformative partnership is in the hands of two men – Farage and Johnson.

Dorries claimed that Starmer and his colleagues hoped that he was feverishly wrong.
