1. A thread about the Conservative Party Membership.

According to the most recent House Of Commons report into party membership, the Tories supposedly had 124,000 members, however no evidence was provided to confirm the accuracy of this.
2. The historical trend of Tory party membership has been falling for decades. According to a 2010 article it had fallen by about a third during David Cameron’s reign in opposition.
3. Following the decision to delay the Brexit leaving date in March 2019, many furious Tory members went public that they had cancelled their membership. Exactly how many left was never reported.
