Andrea Jenkyns continued Reform UK’s shadow cabinet tomfoolery with some off-the-charts cringeworthy cosplay chancellor antics – 17 brutal owns
The party of utter delusion, Reform UK, recently announced its ‘shadow cabinet’ – a thing they could only legitimately have if they were the second-largest party in the House of Commons.
🚨 BREAKING: Nigel Farage has announced Reform's first Shadow Cabinet in full
Chancellor – Robert Jenrick
Deputy PM and Energy, Business, Trade and Housing – Richard Tice
Home Secretary – Zia Yusuf
Education, Skills and Equalities – Suella Braverman pic.twitter.com/yu1cPFLrs4— Politics UK (@PolitlcsUK) February 17, 2026
They’re not second. They’re not even third. Reform UK, is – with eight MPs – the sixth largest grouping in the House, and that’s only because several Conservative MPs deflected.
Following on from Zia Yusuf describing himself as the Shadow Home Secretary, complete with the title on a lectern – Andrea Jenkyns, the Reform UK Mayor of Lincolnshire, has joined in the batshittery with this cosplay chancellor announcement.

We apologise if that caused an involuntary cringe so deep you’re now reading this upside down, but it had to be seen to be believed – and even then, we checked it wasn’t AI.
Twitter had some thoughts.

Is it me or do the letters on Andrea Jenkyns’ briefcase look like they were applied via the medium of Pritt Stick and a catapult?

PS. Andrea — who stuck the pretend gold letters on? I'd ask for a refund. https://t.co/VgZdgZCKhh pic.twitter.com/D5VNwitVav
