Dear supporter,
You may have heard Oliver Dowden (Conservative Party Chairman) galvanising his foot soldiers into action, with the recent news that a general election is likely in twenty months.
Established political parties know where their voters live. They have teams of organisers and campaigners, ready to knock on doors, smile broadly, shake hands, and make promises straight out of the big book of fantasy dreams.
Reform UK is small, but has recently become the fastest growing party in the UK, rising in voter intentions from 2% to 6%, just ahead of the Greens. In some areas of the UK, support is at 9%, but we need to push it much higher.
The Government Is Losing Support
Many of our new supporters have come from disillusioned Conservative voters who are looking aghast at the incompetence of the party they voted for in December 2019.
Ex-Conservative voters, and other folk, who feel deserted by the mainstream political class are being attracted by Reform UK’s common sense solutions to today’s challenges. More details and contact information for your enquiries can be obtained here: https://reformparty.uk/
Voters from the Midlands and the North, are hard-working patriotic folk, who voted Conservative for the first time in order to get Brexit done. They didn’t vote for Boris Johnson’s reckless and unaffordable green revolution.
People are fast realising the Conservative Party has veered sharply to the left. Deserting right of centre voters, they have become a Liberal Green party, with a generous spoonful of Tony Blair’s New Labour.
I’m sure you’re wondering whether the Conservative’s dominant position is possible to topple over?
Consider for a moment, the game of Jenga. A tower of wooden bricks can be made to come crashing down, just by strategically removing a few bricks at the bottom of the tower.
Where the Conservatives Are Failing
The Conservative party seems to be self-destructing, pulling brick after brickk from its own towering edifice. By making many easily avoidable errors, Boris Johnson’s lacklustre team has become disorganised and inept. Shortages and panic buying are not indicators of a party adequately handling the architecture of thoughtful forward planning.
The government has wasted the luxury of an eighty seat majority. Much needed changes to UK laws could have halted the mass illegal immigration arriving in lorries and on our beaches. This is an important issue around the country, and failure to take charge, is a daily reminder that the Conservatives are not serious about UK border control.
In their handling of the Covid 19 pandemic, parents have been dumbfounded at the bewildering decision to vaccinate school children against the clear advice of the JCVI, and potentially overriding parental consent. While this has been strongly criticised, the Conservatives seem determined to plough on regardless.
These issues, and many more, are inexcusable weaknesses in a party that dares to call itself “Conservative”.
Reform UK Is Well Placed for Growth
In Reform UK’s previous life, from a standing start and with hard work and determination, the Brexit Party wiped the floor with the Conservatives, to win the European elections and become the largest party in the EU Parliament, with Theresa May’s departure the icing on the cake.
Reform UK has become the party of common sense. Instead of raising taxes, which stifles growth, the plan is to keep taxes low and red tape to a minimum, as this would help an injured economy to recover faster. A healthy economy naturally creates more tax income than a stifled one, and that’s common sense.
As things stand, the next general election would be a David and Goliath story to tell your grandchildren, if Reform UK was to punch above its weight, and knock a hole in that undeserved eighty seat Tory majority.
To do that, we need everyone to get involved, whether you can give it your full attention, or just find a few hours here and there. Whatever your contribution, it will be invaluable.
Remember, there are hordes of voters out there, who have become dissatisfied, disappointed and uneasy. Many we have spoken to feel they no longer have a political home.
It’s our job, and it’s your job, to find these people and put them at ease. When they hear Reform UK’s common sense strategies and opinions, instead of the Conservative’s U-turns, moving goalposts and confusing policies that are out of step with the needs of British voters, the increasing trickle of support for Reform UK could become a flood.

2) Reform UK Co-ordinator
The voluntary role of Co-ordinator can be quite time intensive, although it can be fitted around work and family.
As a volunteer Reform UK Co-ordinator, your role is to support Reform UK’s presence in your local area, helping candidates and active supporters to pull together, to get the best results possible
While keeping contact with coordinators from other areas, you may actively promote the policies and intentions of Reform UK. This can be achieved via social media, through leafleting and by organising presentations in your town centre, where you can engage positively with the general public. These Street presentations are an excellent way to involve keen supporters who wish to make a contribution.
You would typically work in close contact with your local candidate, while always keeping an eye open for supporters who may wish to put themselves forward as candidates.
3) Active Supporter
You may not have lots of time to spare, but feel passionate about supporting Reform UK.
You may have social media skills, you may be good at public speaking, or be happy to spend a few hours delivering leaflets.
Whatever contribution you can make, you will work closely with your area coordinator. You might be admin on a Reform UK Facebook page, or stand behind the table in the town centre with others, engaging with members of the general public.
Whatever your contribution, it is much needed and will be very welcome. You will find yourself in discussion with like-minded people, where the aim is to make a meaningful difference to this great country of ours.
Note: in the first instance, please make contact via email with your local area management team: xxxxxx@reformparty.uk
