Nigel Farage has outlined one key factor regarding Kemi Badenoch's victory.
Speaking in a video message, Farage highlighted the new Conservative party leader's stance on the an issue of contention for the Tories which is leaving the party split.
He said: "The Tories have chosen, they;ve chosen Kemi Badenoch over Robert Jenirck. What that means is the Conservative party is now committed to staying in the ECHR which means we can't deport foreign criminals and they will never ever stop the boats.
He then followed with a call to Tory party members who voted for Robert Jenrick to join Reform.
It comes as the Tories suffered their lowest ever turnout in history with just 73% of the party's members taking part in the vote.

As Nigel outlined that Kemi's appointment has meant the Tories have lurched to the centre. In Scotland, the Scottish National Party (SNP) depute leader Keith Brown, said her election “has finalised the Tories’ lurch to the far right”.
He added: “Whether it’s rolling back maternity pay or targeting the rights of minorities, Badenoch’s win demonstrates how out of touch the Tories are with people across Scotland.
“The Tory party is now firmly dancing to the dangerous tune of Nigel Farage – it is essential that in Scotland, Russell Findlay doesn’t dance along and instead stands up for Scotland’s inclusive and progressive values.
“With the Labour government punishing the most vulnerable in our society with cuts to pensioners’ winter fuel support and the Tories now being puppeted by Nigel Farage, it has never been more essential that Scotland escapes the Westminster chaos and charts a better future as an independent nation.”
