Nigel Farage, who has reversed his decision to skip the July 4 elections in Britain and returned as leader of Reform UK, formerly the Brexit Party, is now Conservative voters’ top choice to replace Prime Minister Rishi Sunak as Conservative leader. Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party, favored to win the upcoming elections, also faces internal divisions.
Polls show 17 percent of Conservative voters want Farage to lead the Conservatives, who are expected to lose to the left-wing Labour Party by a landslide on election day. This puts him ahead of progressive globalist Cabinet member Penny Mordaunt, at 14 percent, and far ahead of former leader David Cameron, at eight percent. Suella Braverman, the migration-skeptic former Home Secretary, brings up the rear at seven percent.
