Defence Secretary Grant Shapps said a Tory win is ‘not the most likely outcome’ of the election as Reform UK launched its policy plans.
A Conservative General Election victory is unlikely, a Cabinet minister has acknowledged, in the latest sign that the Tory campaign is now focused on saving as many seats as possible to form an effective opposition.
Asked if a Tory victory is unlikely, he replied: “I think that’s the realistic position, isn’t it? I mean, I live in the real world. So, you know, let’s not try and pretend black is white.” “But I think, in the end, there are only two people who can be in Downing Street – it’s either Rishi Sunak or it’s Keir Starmer.
Mr Farage confirmed he has ambitions to be the UK’s prime minister by 2029 under his plan to unite the right by effectively taking over the Conservative Party. Labour intends to spend the week focusing on its plans for the economy, with shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves joining Sir Keir on the campaign trail.
“I don’t think anyone voted Leave because they were not happy that chemicals regulations were the same across Europe.”
