Will Boris also join Reform?

Most of his mates now have!
I think a lot of voters would be happy if he did and it might win even more support for Reform.
But would he want to be tarnished by association with Farage?
And would Farage want to find himself in competition with Boris, for Reform poster boy?
Or maybe Boris is done with politics and just happy making the odd speech, writing the odd column and poncing around with Carrie and the kids on Instagram?

It would make sense to lump all the cunts together 🤷🏻‍♀️

Unlikely. He’s a lot of things but he’s not anti-establishment

Interested in this thread?

He'd only join if he could be the leader. His ego wouldn't accept being second in command to someone else.

Pastlast · 15/01/2026 19:33

There’s no way Nige would let him join and steal the limelight and / or leadership. The man has serious main character energy

mopu · 15/01/2026 19:34

he’s married to a staunch leftie environmentalist who’d go apeshit if he even considered joining

user1471453601 · 15/01/2026 19:36

Farage would never accept him. There's only room for one ego in reform, and that's farage.

It reminds me of the short lived bromance between Trump and Musk. Two massive egos? You just know they are going to blow up sooner rather than later.

If he could be the leader and he thought there was a strong chance of him being PM again, then yes. Don't forget, he miraculously changed his tune about Brexit for the same reason.

She may call herself an environmentalist but according to her Insta feed she spends half her life on holiday abroad in luxury hotels

And you think Farage is?

And yet I feel sure it would be good for Reform's polling. I think they'd win the election of Boris was a big figure in the party.

He would want to be top dog. Would love to see that match…

Treylime · 15/01/2026 19:42

I don't think he will. He has been PM he wouldn't want to do anything lower than that.
(He lives near me and is often seen in driving his tatty car going to Boots or B&M)

Neither are Reform

@mopu Carrie Johnson a staunch leftie? She’s about as much a staunch leftie as Boris is!

This genuinely made me laugh😀 I mean you are right let them clump together so we can see them.

Op i don't think Nigels ego would allow it Boris would "dull his shine"

sashagabadon · 15/01/2026 19:45

I doubt it. I think Reform voters hate Boris now. Blame him for the “Boriswave”

UniquePinkSwan · 15/01/2026 19:47

Don’t be ridiculous

Entangledlife · 15/01/2026 19:55

Farage anti-establishment? Carrie left-wing? Wtf? Are you AI hallucinations?

LlynTegid · 15/01/2026 19:59

I doubt it. Reform Tory defectors have all been people faithful to their husbands or wives, regardless of their political past. So no chance of Liz Truss, Boris Johnson or even Matt Hancock.

So why have you not had him arrested for the many crimes he should be facing, such as treason for unlawfully suspending parliament?

Malcolmscrackers · 15/01/2026 20:02

If he saw it as an expedient way to advance his political career, I am sure he wouldn’t hesitate.

ArseInTheCoOpWindow · 15/01/2026 20:14

I’m more interested that Boris shops at B and M?!!!

Is his house full of glittery stuff?

Well that would just make one huge party because they're all cunts, especially Starmer.

caringcarer · 15/01/2026 20:20

Garage has already said he won't accept Boris after the Boris wave of immigrants or Liz Truss.
