Reform has promoted Laura Anne Jones to deputy leader in Wales despite her two-week suspension from the Senedd for using a racial slur.

A Reform-linked thinktank says it will call to abolish inheritance tax and phase out capital gains tax, proposals that would deliver significant tax cuts largely benefiting wealthier households and linking Reform to those policies.

Two senior figures giving two different answers about those involved. Anderson said there was “no chance” they were coming back. Tice said it was not for any individual to make that determination. Same scandal, same party, completely different story. Reform cannot keep its line straight.

Senior figures are contradicting each other, the “investigation” was announced before anyone had even been chosen to lead it, and Lee Anderson was sent onto live TV to explain a position that changed under basic questioning.

Nigel Farage returned to Parliament and, within hours, was already breaking its rules. That might seem minor on its own. It looks rather different when the same man is under investigation over an undeclared £5m gift and Reform remains under growing scrutiny elsewhere.

Reform spent a year presenting itself as Britain’s coming political force. New YouGov research suggests the public is increasingly seeing something very different.

Farage has tried to dress Reform up as a government-in-waiting, complete with a self-styled “shadow cabinet”. But the image is cracking, support is down from its peak, election results are worsening and increasingly bitter rows are breaking out inside the party.

Farage triggered the Clacton by-election while under scrutiny over a £5 million gift, only to see nearly 10,000 voters back Count Binface, skip his own declaration amid disputed security claims, and return to Parliament with the standards investigation immediately reopened.

Nigel Farage’s approval rating has fallen to -32, his lowest since the 2024 general election. The collapse comes amid a deepening scandal over Reform’s finances and a self-inflicted Clacton by-election in which his most prominent opponent is Count Binface.

Reform UK has been reported to the equalities watchdog after MPs cited “overwhelming evidence” of Islamophobia. Muslim communities already face record levels of religious hate crime in Britain. Parties that inflame that hostility must be held accountable.

Reform Watch @reformwatch.org · 26/05/2026

Reform UK’s defence of Robert Kenyon’s sexist remarks is disgraceful. His comments are blatant misogyny, and dismissing them as “locker room banter” proves Reform is willing to excuse contempt for women. Makerfield deserves better.

Robert Kenyon is friends with Gary Raikes on Facebook. Raikes, a former BNP and Britain First member, leads the New British Union – the modern successor to Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists. This is who represents Reform in Makerfield.

Reform UK wasn’t just calling supporters. They were cold-calling strangers to stand as candidates. A Byline Times investigation exposes a party scrambling to fill ballots, raising serious questions about standards and data use.

Farage has reopened the argument, his MPs have voted for restriction, and his head of policy opposes abortion even in pregnancies resulting from rape. Reform’s evasions should fool nobody by @reformwatch.org

Reform cannot be trusted with abortion law

Farage and his party want to drag Britain backwards on reproductive rights while hoping the public will be soothed by ambiguity.
