Kevin Schofield is Politics Editor of HuffPost UK.

The poll of 725 Tory members found that 47% of them would back a merger with Reform UK, with 48% opposed.: “You can speculate as to what’ll happen in three or four years’ time, all I will tell you is if Reform succeed in the way that I think they can, then a chunk of the Conservative Party will join us - it’s the other way around.”

A Reform UK spokesman said: “With the Conservatives in the next year or so looking more like the staging for a Jacobean revenger’s tragedy than a functional 21st century political party, we should not intrude on their internal drama.“That being said, when did their parliamentary cast list ever give a hoot about what the membership wants?”run out of Queen Mary University of London and Sussex University, also found that 25% back Badenoch to be the next leader.
