Liz Truss has reportedly been sharing her wisdom on how Reform can take on the establishment blob’ She lost her seat in the supposedly Tory heartlands of rural Norfolk in July .

Truss 's name is the highest profile of those floated in a purely speculatory way, to be clear for a possible shock defection.

Once the poster girl for radical free market ideology, Liz Truss’s politics have drifted in a more nationalistic direction since she began flirting with the Maga crowd.

It is unclear quite what her politics currently are, or how they would align with Reform 's strategy of drawing voters from Labour and the Tories alike.

Lee Anderson defected to Reform after losing the Tory whip and becoming the party's first MP.
