Britain's Political Shake-Up: Can the Tories Bounce Back?

The Conservative Party, once a titan of British politics, is in hot water. For years, they've been a steady force, but now they're facing a serious challenge. Nigel Farage's Reform UK party is stealing the spotlight, and the Tories are feeling the heat.
