Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has torn into Vice President JD Vance's claim that a Franco-British peacekeeping force would be just "20,000 troops from some random country that hasn't fought a war in 30 or 40 years". Speaking to GB News from today's mass farmer protest in Westminster, Farage said the Vice President was "wrong, wrong, wrong" as he hailed how Britain "did our bit" alongside the US in Afghanistan. He told the People's Channel: "JD Vance is wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. For 20 years in Afghanistan, pro-rata, our size against America's, we spent the same amount of money, we...

Nigel Farage’s Reform UK has cemented its lead in the polls and has begun to pull ahead of the Westminster establishment parties, according to a survey from YouGov. Just over seven months after the leftist Labour Party swept to power in the UK following the collapse of the neo-liberal “Conservatives”, Nigel Farage’s insurgent sovereigntist-populist Reform party has begun to entrench itself as the preferred party of the British voter. According to a poll conducted this week from top survey firm YouGov, Reform UK has increased its lead over other parties and now stands clearly on top at 27 per cent,...

Nigel Farage says he wants to "mend fences" with Elon Musk, after the billionaire Trump adviser called for him to be replaced as Reform UK party leader. Just before Christmas, Farage told journalists his party was in "negotiations" with Mr Musk, the world's richest man, about a potential donation. But come the new year, the relationship had soured, with Tesla boss Mr Musk saying Farage "did not have what it takes" to lead the party. Farage suggested the snub was over a disagreement about Mr Musk's support for the jailed far-right activist Tommy Robinson. Speaking on LBC, Farage said he...

Labour's plot to ‘rig’ the next election by meddling with voting laws was last night described as ‘deeply concerning’. Sir Keir Starmer’s government is proposing to allow millions of foreign nationals to vote and abolish measures to prevent voter fraud. Ministers are considering plans to overhaul the way elections are held by scrapping voter ID laws and give five million foreign nationals the right to vote in UK elections.

@Nigel_Farage Keir Starmer is sweeping the failures of the establishment under the carpet. Nothing less than a full national inquiry into the rape gangs will do.

"The Reform Party needs a new leader. Farage doesn't have what it takes" - Elon Musk

Elon Musk has reignited his feud with the Prime Minister in a social media rant where he called for a new UK election and the release of far-right activist Tommy Robinson from prison. The world’s richest man, who is a close ally of incoming US President Donald Trump, posted a series of tweets on Thursday stating “free Tommy Robinson” and in another said “a new election should be called in Britain”. He added that “only” Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party could “save” Britain.

Nigel Farage has claimed Elon Musk will help Reform UK win over young voters and beat the Conservatives at the next general election. The Reform UK leader said the Tesla tycoon and social media mogul is "an absolute hero figure" for the younger generation. Farage believes Musk would be a "huge help" in connecting youth voters with the party, amid rumours of a potential major donation from the world's richest man. The comments come as Farage remains locked in a heated dispute with Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch over Reform UK's membership numbers. The former UKIP leader has hinted at possible...

Nigel Farage and his party treasurer have met with Elon Musk at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort for the first time since rumours surfaced of a multi-million donation from the tech tycoon. The Reform UK leader and Nick Candy, the billionaire husband of singer Holly Valance who will take up the fundraising role for Mr Farage's party in the new year, met on Monday 16 December, the party said. The meeting comes following reports that Mr Musk was considering donating £78m to Mr Farage - an ally of Mr Trump - as a "f*** you Starmer payment". Later Mr Farage tweeted...

Nigel Farage says Britain should 'pretty much' close its borders following a period of record migration. The leader of the Reform Party said anti-white discrimination is becoming systemic in institutions like the RAF, and warned that parts of English cities are not recognisably English. He advocated for 'net zero' migration and said he intellectually admires Enoch Powell. Farage slammed Tory leadership contenders as 'nobodies' and discussed increasing threats to his security. Steven Edginton also cited census data from 2001 and 2021, which showed the white population in Britain declined from 87% to 74%. .....

Starmer does multiple screw ups and fails to remedy them, especially farmers and inheritance tax, heating allowance for seniors, and lawfare against opposition, national insurance, etc.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has ruled out calling another general election, but said he is “not surprised” some people who did not support Labour might want a second poll. A petition on Parliament’s website calling for another election had by Monday night been signed by more than 2.4 million people. “I believe the current Labour Government have gone back on the promises they laid out in the lead-up to the last election.” Asked about the petition on ITV’s This Morning programme on Monday, Sir Keir said: “Look, I remind myself that very many people didn’t vote Labour at the...

Say MPs shouldn't have their own TV shows (except if they're in Labour or left-wing). Transcript linked below video.

Wondering why the country’s spiraling out of control under Keir Starmer’s watch? He’s quick to point fingers at the so-called “far-right,” but what’s really behind the chaos on our streets?

LONDON — Populist lawmaker Nigel Farage on Friday won his first-ever seat in the U.K.'s parliament as he looks to shake up the country's politics with his right-wing Reform UK party. The win by the Brexit proponent follows seven failed attempts to become a member of the British parliament, although he has served as a (pro-Brexit) member of the European Parliament. "My plan is to build a mass national movement over the course of the next few years and hopefully be big enough to challenge the general election properly in 2029," Farage said after the result was announced. The result...

LONDON (Reuters) - Reform UK, the right-wing populist party led by Nigel Farage, looks set to emerge as a new force in British politics, winning its first seat in an election and squeezing the Conservative vote in the early results declared. Farage, a driving force behind Britain's decision to leave the European Union, only entered the election race last month, a move that caused shockwaves in a Conservative Party that was already far adrift of centre-left Labour.

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage will be the MP for Clacton-on-Sea, the exit poll suggests. It is Mr Farage’s eighth attempt to become an MP having failed on each previous attempt. The exit poll predicts Reform UK have a likelihood of 99 per cent-plus to gain the seat in Essex. It comes as the exit poll suggests the Labour Party will sweep to power with a 410 seat election victory and a majority of 170, with Tory big beats including Jeremy Hunt, Grant Shapps and Penny Mordaunt set to lose their seats.
