Robert Edward Jenrick is a British politician who has been Member of Parliament (MP) for Newark since the 2014 by-election. Elected as a member of the Conservative Party, he joined Reform UK in January 2026.[1]
Defection to Reform
Following the Labour Party's victory in the 2024 general election, Jenrick launched a bid to become Leader of the Conservative Party, eventually coming second to Kemi Badenoch.
In January 2026 he defected to Reform UK. This was precipitated by Badenoch dismissing him from the Shadow Cabinet and suspending him from the party after it was alleged that he intended to defect. He subsequently became the party's Treasury Spokesperson in Nigel Farage's frontbench team.
Opinions
In 2024, Jenrick said the Star of David should be displayed at every point of entry to the UK to show "we stand with Israel".[2]
Activities
During the Covid in April 2020, after Jenrick repeatedly had urged the public at televised press briefings to stay at home during the government-imposed lockdown, the Daily Mail showed on 10 April that he had twice not followed government restrictions after they were announced.[3]
Personal life
Jenrick is married to Israeli-born and US-educated corporate lawyer Michal Berkner, who practises mainly in London.
He has taken multiple taxpayer-funded trips to Israel paid for by the Jewish lobby.[4]
