Smug Nigel Farage brags that there will be ‘warfare within the Conservative Party within a week’ following Reform’s rapid rise to the top of the right amidst Rishi Sunak’s faltering campaign

Nigel Farage has boasted that there will be war within the Conservative Party within a week of the dramatic increase in reforms in recent weeks.

The Reform leader suggested the Tories were heading for infighting news his party overtook theirs for the first time in a recent YouGov poll.

“You will see that those MPs, with whom I agree on most things, become much more vocal about their position than that of the party,” he said. The Telegraph.

‘The divisions will become even worse. And I will say to them: ‘Sorry guys, you’re just in the wrong party.’

Farage claimed this week that Reform was now the ‘opposition to Labour’, following a YouGov poll The times raised Reform by two points to 19 percent, while the Tories remained unchanged at 18 percent.

Farage, who had only announced two weeks ago that he would stand as a candidate in the general election for Reform UK, made the explosive claim on Thursday as national polls showed a small increase in support for his party.

“Just before we went on air, we overtook the Conservatives in the national polls. We are now the opposition to Labour,” he said.

Labor remains ahead with an 18-point lead, with Keir Starmer’s party backed by 37 percent of voters.

The Liberal Democrats also came closer with 14 percent.

With polls showing declining support for the Conservative Party, Farage told LBC earlier this week that he would be willing to lead a merged coalition with the Tories after the election.

He said he could not lead the party as it “currently is” but said he felt “capable of leading a national opposition to a Labor Party with a large majority, which I can stand on.” and can hold them to account on issues’.

He said the election was “over” and Labor “won”, but deemed the Tories “unable” to form an effective opposition in their current form.

The Conservatives are struggling to gain support at the polls despite launching their manifesto on Tuesday.

The 80-page document promised more cuts to National Insurance payments, a higher threshold for losing child benefits and a cap on legal migration to ensure a drop in arrivals each year.

The Tories have also drawn up a plan for conscription for 18-year-olds – a policy that has divided military figures, been branded ‘desperate’, not funded by Labour, and downright unpopular with young people.

Sunak said the program would ‘give our young people the opportunity to enjoy new experiences, learn new skills and feel a sense of community, belonging and national purpose’.

Labor launched its manifesto two days later, on Thursday, positioning itself as a party for change after fourteen years of Tory rule.

The party set out to improve the living standards of working people with an ‘affordable’ plan, encouraging investment back to Britain and clamping down on tax avoidance.

The IFS, an independent think tank, said the number of reviews to determine policy positions after the elections were promised in the manifesto was ‘staggering’.

Nigel Farage said his party will publish its manifesto on Monday, June 17.

He has promised to boost growth by raising the income tax threshold from £12,570 to £20,000.

Nigel Farage will stand as a Reform candidate in Clacton, Essex, which in 2014 became the first constituency to elect a UKIP MP.

Clacton currently has a Conservative majority of 24,702.

Farage told the BBC in May he would not stand in the election because six weeks to launch a campaign was ‘not long enough’, and to claim the US elections were ‘more important’.

Farage later said: ‘As hard as it is, I can’t let those millions of people down, I just can’t, it would be wrong. That’s why I decided I changed my mind.’

Farage replaced Richard Tice as leader of the reforms on June 3.
