Rees-Mogg's little SISTER: Ex-'Cameron cutie' Annunziata, 40, stuns the Tories by defecting just HOURS before vowing to take on 'far-right' UKIP in EU elections Nigel Farage launched Brexit Party and started war of words with UKIP as he unveiled Annunziata Rees-Mogg Jacob's younger sister stood as Tory in 2005 and 2010 general elections - but refused to 'de-toff' her name She said: 'The Prime Minister will not listen to the people - I can't sit by and let her do it. We need to fight back' Her brother told MailOnline: 'The Brexit Party is fortunate to have such a high calibre candidate. I am sorry that Annunziata has left the Conservative party'. Farage says new home will beat UKIP and has bet £1,000 on Brexit Party winning the most seats on May 23 Tory MEP David Campbell Bannerman said party 'will get a kicking' at polls and lose half of their 18 MEPs Nigel Farage launched his new Brexit Party and announced Jacob Rees-Mogg's sister Annunziata as his first star MEP candidate - after she quit the Tories after 35 years today. The former UKIP leader has vowed to take votes from the 'tarnished' party he left in December and started a new war of words with successor Gerard Batten by claiming he lacks 'good people' and has allowed a 'take over' by the far right. Launching the party in Coventry today Mr Farage said it is 'no more Mr Nice Guy' before unveiling his secret weapon Ms Rees-Mogg, whose brother told MailOnline today: 'The Brexit Party is fortunate to have such a high calibre candidate but I am sorry that Annunziata has left the Conservative party'. His younger sister previously stood as a Tory candidate in the 2005 and 2010 general elections and joined the party aged five - but has now jumped ship after Theresa May failed to deliver Brexit. She defected from the Tories to join Mr Farage's revolt today. The 40-year-old mother-of-one, once one of David Cameron's 'cuties' who refused party requests to 'de-toff' her name to Nancy, blasted MPs, including her older sibling, saying: 'The politicians are not our masters - they are to do our bidding. We need to fight back to take back our democracy. It's as drastic as that. It is our fight and we must fight to win'. She said she had stuck with the Tories 'through thick and thin' but Brexit had been the last straw. She said: 'But the point at which our Prime Minister will not listen, not only to her membership, but will not listen to the people of her country. I can't sit by and let her do it. We've got to rescue our democracy, we have got to show that the people of this country have a say in how we are run'. Theresa May's Tories are in crisis over her failure to steer Britain out of the EU with the party ten points down in the polls. Conservative MEP David Campbell Bannerman said today the party 'will get a kicking' on May 23 and lose half of their 18 MEPs. Labour has also lost ground, according to the BMG poll, down three points, with the Liberal Democrats, UKIP, Independent Group and Brexit Party are all closely matched at approaching 10 per cent. As his party faces a massacre at the polls, Chancellor Philip Hammond today insisted he believes MPs can still agree a Brexit deal after Easter to avoid the elections and said: 'Clearly nobody wants to fight the European elections - it feels like a pointless exercise. We want to ensure that any British MEPs never have to take their seats'. He also admitted the idea of second referendum ‘very likely’ to be put to Parliament.
