UK Conservative leader says the party is reviving and rules out a pact with Farage's Reform UK
Europe2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported53m ago
The leader of the UK's opposition Conservative Party stated on Wednesday that the party is on a path to recovery and rejected the possibility of forming an electoral pact with Reform UK. The announcement marks a clear stance against aligning with the right-of-center rival to regain political momentum.
Despite the Conservative leader's claims of a revival, current opinion polling indicates that the party continues to trail both the governing Labour Party and Reform UK. The rejection of an alliance underscores a strategic decision to maintain the party's independence from Nigel Farage’s organization as it seeks to return to power.
