Reform UK MP Sarah Pochin has called for Right-wing parties to unite ahead of the next general election, warning that voters should not be let down by "squabbles" between rival groups. Speaking at Reform's conference in Birmingham, the Runcorn and Helsby MP said she would "feel devastated if the Right destroys itself" and urged politicians to rise above personal attacks in order to prevent Labour from retaining power. Her comments come despite both Reform leader Nigel Farage and Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch having repeatedly ruled out any electoral pact between their parties.

Ms Pochin made her remarks during a live recording of the Daily T podcast, alongside former Tory minister Nadine Dorries, who defected to Reform last year and echoed calls for the "Right to unite". The comments follow cooling expectations of a deal between Reform and Restore Britain, the party founded by former Reform MP Rupert Lowe after he split from Farage, with insiders citing Lowe's refusal to sack aide Charlie Downes as a sticking point. Pochin suggested Lowe risked damaging Reform's vote share, while Reform's home affairs spokesman Zia Yusuf struck a starkly different tone, telling activists the party should aim to destroy the Conservatives rather than strike a deal with them.
