ROBERT Jenrick has tonight sensationally defected to Reform after being pre-emptively sacked by Kemi Badenoch. The axed Shadow Justice Secretary launched excoriating attacks on his former Tory colleagues as he joined his new boss Nigel Farage.

Forcing Mr Jenrick to make his move, he now becomes Reform’s sixth MP after becoming the latest high-profile Conservative to switch sides. At a dynamite press conference, the ex-Tory Cabinet Minister said: “I can’t – in good conscience – stick with a party that’s failed so badly.
