Alex Wilson (born 1984) is a British politician and businessman, serving as a Member of the London Assembly (AM) for Londonwide since 2024. He is a member of Reform UK. He was previously a member of the Conservative Party for over twenty years and was an elected Conservative Party councillor.
Political career
Wilson previously served as a Conservative Party councillor on Redbridge London Borough Council from 2009 to 2014. Whilst serving as a councillor he was forced to resign from his cabinet position after implying he had been accused of not dedicating enough time to his portfolio.
Initially a member of the Conservative Party for 21 years, he quit in 2020 and defected to Reform UK. Explaining his decision, he told the Evening Standard: "Lockdown was what drove me out [of the Tories], but then since then, it's high tax, it's net zero, it's not controlling the borders - it's all these kinds of issues which make me not even want to think about going back."
In the 2024 London Assembly election, Wilson was the lead candidate on the Reform UK list in the London-wide region, and was elected as his party's sole representative. Prior to this, Wilson served as a pollster for Reform UK.
Wilson was the Reform candidate for Ilford North in the 2024 UK general election, where he finished fourth.
Business career
Wilson is the sole director of Psephos Consulting, a public relations and communications firm specialised in the development industry.
