It’s not a great choice.

 
In the UK Reform took away the CaUP base.

 
In the UK the Conservative part took away their base by fucking
their country up...
 

This. The sensible Tories were aghast at how fast and how badly the right
wing’s darling Liz Truss had screwed an already faltering economy (Pandemic
and Ukraine all still damaging any and all plans to recover from the
disaster that was Brexit).

The far right Tories were appalled that not enough was being done to
destroy Britain in the name of racial purity and it’s mostly them that
peeled off to the not-at-all-jackbooted Reform Party.

Result - massive targeted wins for Labour and Lib Dems across the board,
taking advantage of all those schisms.

It’s not coincidental that Reform did best by far in the regions that had
voted most strongly for Leave. Isolationists and fascists make a
significant minority when joined at the hip, alas.

Let’s just be grateful that merely right wing Tories sat tight and hunkered
down to weather the oncoming storm, and didn’t swing further towards the
purple shirts, thus limiting Reform’s impact.
