Reform UK is now just one point behind the Conservatives as the second-biggest party in Wales, new polling has shown.
Polling company Redfield and Wilton show that the Welsh Conservatives, led by Andrew RT Davies, have plummeted from 36 per cent in 2019 to just 16 per cent, with Labour ahead on 49 per cent and Reform UK on 15 per cent in Wales. Reform UK leader Richard Tice took to social media, saying: "Reform within a whisker of being second largest polling party. England next."
Reacting to the news, Lee Anderson MP said: "It's happening! It's up to you now to make sure the momentum gathers pace."
Elsewhere polling conducted by YouGov, put the Conservative Party on 19 per cent support, while Reform UK was on 15 per cent support, an increase of one point.
The polling comes in the wake of Lee Anderson's decision to defect to the party, crossing the floor to the opposition benches from the Tory party.

Trumpism is going to sweep the West. You'll see.
The UK will have to do two things first...
Stop allowing its Deep State to choose the citizenry’s candidates for them.
And secure their elections.
If the polling is indeed that close, it’s because there’s not a ha’penny worth of difference between the parties.
And Deep States everywhere like it that way.
What is about to happen to the Tories happened in Canada in the 1990s and will, God wiling, happen to the GOP here soon.
Until Dem + GOP < 218 in the House and < 48 in the Senate, America will never be free.
You’re right about Canada. Total wipe-out
Hopefully something rises from the ashes?!
English Conservatives = American RINO’s
Just as bad and plentiful
They deserve what’s coming
“MAKE BRITAIN GREAT AGAIN! Trumpism is going to sweep the West. You’ll see.”
Except they seem to be doing the WRONG thing, as the combined Tory/Reform vote is only 31%, when the Tories alone were earlier at 36%, so some of the Tory vote went to Labor, and thus Labor has an even larger lead.
If the people in UK cannot figure out the need to stay away from Labor, they’re through.
Reform is only a few years old as a party.
Nascent, if anything.
You got to start somewhere
“Reform is only a few years old as a party. Nascent, if anything. You got to start somewhere.”
Fair point - there is like zero-distance between the Tories and Labor now. The elected Republicans in the US may hate us Trump (and Rand) voters, but they still give us some legitimate red meat, like push-back on gun control, relatively low taxes, and judges. In the UK, it’s more a race to see which party can destroy the country the fastest, with the immigration policies of the Tories now in the lead.
The 49% that Labor has would likely be even higher without Reform being there, but Europeans DO NOT have much time...they now are barreling head-long into their own ‘Final Solution’, even to the point where Russia is trying to them down as Russia is likely scared to death of what comes next in Europe when DEI takes over.
You’ve got it backwards. The reason Reform and the Tories are neck and neck is because the Tories are like our Republican Party. Make great promises, don’t deliver and full of RINOs. Reform is like MAGA. You can keep voting for the same old or you can try to infiltrate while sending a message to the Party.
Oh, amen. Johnson, Sunaks, what’s her name… feckless and ineffective
