This new Reform UK councillor just forgot which party he belongs to and it’s like the essence of Farage in 14 seconds flat
England is waking up to lots of new Reform UK councillors after Thursday’s local elections but it’s one in particular that we’re interested here.
It’s this especially excitable and newly-elected Reform UK-er who was so delighted that he forget which party he belongs to.
And as an indicator of Farage’s party and its philosophy, it’s hard to beat.

I am genuinely worried about the future of our country.

He’s right in a sense, UKIP is indeed here but with a different name & Reform councils are already going down the same path as UKIP did back in the day. You would think people would learn, but they really don’t. More fool them, they deserve what they get.

It’s possibly the best thing that Reform get in to represent local so many councils, ahead of the election. By 2029, the electorate will have had a first hand understanding of just how empty & clueless they really are. Information is power!

Good to know the vetted Reform candidates are of high moral and intellectual calibre 🤣 https://t.co/U7PCw9uCX9
