Brexit: Will Reform UK Destroy the Conservative Party?
Channel: The Federal Trust
Date: 2024-03-14

Brendan Donnelly and John Stevens discuss the impact of the Reform Party on British politics. They argue that its threat to the Conservative Party lies in its ability to win over those voters still committed to Brexit who think that Brexit’s failure could have been avoided by a more competent or zealous Conservative government.

SPEAKERS
Brendan Donnelly is the Director of the Federal Trust and a former Conservative MEP.
John Stevens is the Chair of the Federal Trust and an analyst and commentator on economic affairs.
