It was revealed last month Coun Robertson had been deselected by the Blackpool South Conservative Association to stand as one of its candidates at next May’s local elections
A Blackpool councillor dropped by his party has said he will fight the next local elections as a member of the Reform Party.
He said: “I was very disappointed at being deselected and I no longer have any confidence in the Conservative Party in South Shore, and I think nationally the Conservatives are failing to make the right decisions for the country. The Conservative Party has selected former serviceman Jim O’Neill and local businessman Chris Higgitts as its candidates for Waterloo ward at the next local elections.
The right wing Reform Party began life in 2018 as the Brexit Party before being renamed in January 2021.
