Laura Anne Jones, a senior Conservative Member of the Senedd (MS) for South Wales East, has dramatically defected to Reform UK, becoming the party's first representative in the Welsh Parliament. The move, announced by Reform UK leader Nigel Farage at the Royal Welsh Show, marks a significant blow to the Welsh Conservatives and signals Reform UK's growing influence in Wales. Jones cited disillusionment with the Conservative Party and a desire for political change as her reasons for switching allegiance. Her defection has triggered a backlash from former colleagues and prompted a reshuffle within the Welsh Conservative shadow cabinet. The high-profile switch is seen as a turning point ahead of the next Senedd elections, with more defections to Reform UK possible.
