Episode 50: Rupert Lowe’s future in Westminster unclear as Tory grandee rules out place for him in party

Former Reform UK MP Rupert Lowe is too right wing to join the Conservative party, ex-Cabinet minister Sir David Davis has said, who said the rise of Reform UK was a symptom of his party's failure over the past years.


Party grandee Davis told today's Chopper's Political Podcast said that Reform had grown in popularity because "we were not proper Tories for too long", and added that new Labour MPs were telling him they feared only being in office for a single Parliamentary term.


Davis - a Tory MP since 1987 and a former Cabinet minister - said that it was "probably right" for Lowe - who lost the whip as a Reform UK MP after a spectacular falling out with its leader Nigel Farage - to be an independent MP.


Asked by host Christopher Hope if he felt that Lowe would be welcome in the Tory party, he replied: "No, I don't. I think, if anything, Rupert is a bit to the right of the rest of them, of Nigel Farage."
