Not Looking Rosie Is It?
//Canterbury MP Rosie Duffield has resigned the Labour whip, accusing the Prime Minister of “hypocrisy” and pursuing “cruel and unnecessary” policies.
In a resignation letter, Ms Duffield attacked Sir Keir Starmer’s decision to keep the two-child benefit cap and means-test winter fuel payments and condemned his handling of the outcry over gifts given to him and other senior Labour figures.//

She has implied it's one of the reasons (you used the word MAIN), but as that's been known about for a while I think it's more to do with Keir's hypocrisy over accepting gifts coupled with the WFA cut. on top of the benefit cap, and perhaps even the tuition fees and plans to cut some budgets relating to public spending (return to austerity?). Her treatment over transgender issues must be an issue too.
I doubt very much Rosie is interested in joining Reform. She'll remain an Independent. If she does jump it would be to Liberals or Greens IMO.
