Conservative MP Dame Andrea Jenkyns has sparked controversy by featuring a photo of Reform UK Leader Nigel Farage on her election campaign leaflet. The leaflet, which does not include a picture of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak or a clear mention of the Conservative Party, has been criticized as 'misleading'. Conservative MP Charles Walker expressed his disapproval on LBC, calling it 'not acceptable' and 'disloyal'. Walker suggested that if Jenkyns is so disappointed in the Conservatives, she should have stood for Reform UK, where Farage and Tice would have welcomed her. Despite the backlash, Jenkyns has defended her campaign material.
