The former home secretary, who is expected to run to succeed Rishi Sunak as party leader, warned “there’s too many in my party who are still complacent" about the threat of Nigel Farage and Reform UK.
The Conservatives lost in a landslide election to Labour at the general election last week.
Ms Braverman said: “They think that Reform is a fad, ‘They’ll be a busted flush in a few years’ time, people will come back to us as Labour fails on some of these policies and we can sit back and just wait’.

“I’m not in that camp. This is a crisis for our party and if we don’t realise the enormity of the problem and fundamentally change, we will have no chance of fixing it.”
She added: “Whoever is leading the party, whoever is running the party, just needs to accept that basic truth and if they don’t then we will be doomed as a party and that’s what really, really terrifies me.”

Disputes between Tory leadership rivals have descended into a public slanging match.
Ms Braverman and her fellow leadership hopeful Kemi Badenoch traded blows on X, formerly Twitter, after Ms Badenoch reportedly accused her rival of having a “very public” nervous breakdown during a meeting of Tory frontbenchers.
Tory grandee Sir Edward Leigh wants a “strong right-wing candidate” to be the new leader of the Conservative Party.
Speaking after leaving the 1922 Committee meeting, the Father of the House told reporters: “The Conservative Party will never recover unless it is a proper Conservative Party doing conservative things. The public are absolutely furious that we did not control mass immigration, legal and illegal.
