Badenoch has urged the Conservative Party to consider voters from Reform UK as part of their own base, emphasizing that many individuals who supported Nigel Farage's party have historically been loyal Tory voters. This statement comes as former Prime Minister John Major cautions against a shift to the right within the party. In other news, the Home Office has announced that protection zones will be established around abortion clinics in England and Wales starting from 31 October. These new regulations will prohibit campaigners from distributing anti-abortion leaflets to individuals visiting the clinics. The designated buffer zones will extend 150 meters around these facilities. The implementation of safe access buffer zones will make it illegal for anyone to intentionally or recklessly influence a person's decision to seek abortion services, obstruct their access, or cause harassment or distress to those using or working at the clinics. Violators of this law could face unlimited fines. To ensure effective enforcement of this new legislation, the College of Policing and the Crown Prosecution Service will provide guidance to law enforcement and prosecutors prior to the law's enactment. The government has stated that these protections are long overdue, and it is committed to making the country a safer environment for women.
