Devizes MP Danny Kruger, who co-chairs the New Conservatives group of mainly "Red Wall" MPs, agrees, telling BBC Radio 4's World at One the Brexit referendum result showed "ordinary people... wanted their country back" - and the government had yet to deliver this.
He describes the results as a "wake-up call", saying the Tories can still win the next election if they get their vote out by standing up for voters' values - on migration, sex education in schools, gender issues and taxation.

1. Devizes isn't the red fucking wall.
2. I thought Brexit was all long ago and didn't matter.
3. And who has been the government for the last 7 years, wee Daniel?
4. If that's what the voters want, how come given several opportunities to demonstrate this, they still stay at home? Aside from Uxbridge, where at least you got out the cabbie vote.
5. You're an old Etonian policy wonk. Just fuck off.

In June 2022, Kruger supported Prime Minister Boris Johnson in the 2022 Conservative Party vote of confidence in his leadership, saying "I don't judge people's private morals, or rather I do but I oughtn't. I judge public conduct. And on that, I think we should be forgiving about minor slips". In the same month, while speaking during a debate on the overturning of Roe v. Wade by the Supreme Court of the United States which resulted in the removal of pregnant women's constitutional right to abortion, he commented that he did not agree "that women have an absolute right to bodily autonomy" in relation to abortion as "in the case of abortion that right is qualified by the fact that another body is involved".
On 6 July 2022, Kruger resigned as Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities as part of a crisis in confidence in Johnson's leadership. He endorsed Suella Braverman during the subsequent leadership election.
In 2023, at the National Conservatism conference, Kruger commented in a speech that "the only basis for a safe and successful society" was marriage between men and women, that they should stick "together for the sake of the children", and that this should be recognised and rewarded. He also bemoaned what he saw as "the radicalisation of a generation. In the name of a new ideology, a new religion – a mix of Marxism and narcissism and paganism, self-worship and nature-worship all wrapped up in revolution." He defended his views on the Planet Normal podcast, arguing that "I do think that society has been built and can only really prosper if the basis of it is the principle that if you have children with somebody fit, the ideal is that you stick together with that person through the whole of your child's life.... but as I say there are many occasions where that is not possible." Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's spokesman distanced himself from Kruger's remarks on the role of marriage in society. Kruger also defended the use of the phrase Cultural Marxism by fellow MP Miriam Cates at the same conference.
In October 2023 Kruger claimed on Sky News that many asylum applicants to the UK were pretending to be gay so as to increase their chances of remaining. No evidence has been produced to support this claim. Latest government figures show that the number of applicants citing sexuality has fallen in recent years, and the percentage of these in 2021 was about 1%.
So fuck off back to the apartheid Seerf Effrika you clearly fucking love so much, where you could give anyone you didn't like a good sjambokking until they knew their place, you hideous fucking reptilian hypocrite.
