Jonathan Gullis swears he would never join Reform in resurfaced clip
Jonathan Gullis insists ‘not a cat’s chance in hell’ of defecting to Reform in 2024 clip
Jonathan Gullis, a former Tory party deputy chairman, has defected to Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party.
His defection was confirmed on Monday, 1 December 2025.
Gullis stated he was leaving the Conservative party because he believes it has “lost touch with the people it was meant to serve”.
A newly resurfaced clip from 13 March 2024 shows Gullis insisting there was “not a cat’s chance in hell” of him joining Reform UK.
In the 2024 clip, he reacted to Lee Anderson’s defection, claiming it takes “courage and conviction to sometimes stay within something like a political party”.
