She told the Daily Mail: “The Tory Party is dead. Its members now need to think the unthinkable and look to the future.”

Meanwhile Mr Farage said last night: “I am absolutely delighted to welcome Nadine Dorries to Reform UK.

“She is a hugely successful politician, author and columnist and will be a great boost to our campaign to win the next General Election.”

Ms Dorries, who spent 18 years as a Tory MP, is set to deliver the opening speech at Reform’s annual conference in Birmingham tomorrow.

It is understood the former Tory MP held secret meetings with Mr Farage at an exclusive members’ only Mayfair club.

An official role as part of the Reform administration is yet to be officially cemented, according to the Mail.
