Scottish councillor Thomas Kerr defects to Nigel Farage's Reform UK, citing desire for "real change."

Scottish Conservative councillor Thomas Kerr has defected to Nigel Farage's Reform UK party, citing a desire for "real change." Kerr, who led the Conservatives at Glasgow City Council, is the highest-profile member to leave the Tories for Reform UK. Scottish Conservative leader Russell Findlay called Kerr's defection "very disappointing," while Reform UK welcomed Kerr as a significant addition. A recent poll places both parties neck-and-neck with 15 seats each in the Scottish Parliament.
