Wales Reform UK Ex-leader Jailed for Taking Russian Bribes
Nov 21, 2025 | Nathan Gill was once described as Nigel Farage's right-hand-man when both men sat in the European parliament.

A Reform UK spokesman said: “Mr Gill’s actions were reprehensible, treasonous and unforgivable. We are glad that justice has been served.

Lord Heseltine Pressed on Reform "Equivalents to the Fascists in the 30s" Comments
Oct 9, 2025 | Victoria Derbyshire speaks to Tory grandee Lord Heseltine about comments he made at Conservative Party Conference where he described Reform UK "and other parties across Europe today as among the right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s."
A Reform UK spokesperson said: “92-year-old Lord Heseltine is out of touch and deeply offensive to millions of voters.”
A Tory grandee who speaks oodles of common sense. But then he would, wouldn’t he? He’s a Welshman! 😊 This gentleman should have become prime minister. Had it not been for Thatcher, he most probably would have become prime minster. Unfortunately, Thatcher loathed him. And I presume that the feeling was mutual. — © Mark Alexander

Keir Starmer promet d’«affronter» le parti de Nigel Farage au Royaume-Uni, avant un congrès travailliste à haut risque
LE FIGARO : Le parti anti-immigration de Nigel Farage, Reform UK, poursuit son ascension dans les sondages, alors que le premier ministre accumule les déboires politiques.
Les travaillistes britanniques commencent à se réunir dimanche à Liverpool pour un congrès annuel à haut risque pour le premier ministre Keir Starmer, de plus en plus contesté dans son camp, qui tentera de convaincre qu’il est capable de mener le «combat» contre le parti anti-immigration de Nigel Farage. Quinze mois seulement après son arrivée au pouvoir, le chef du gouvernement accumule les déboires. L’économie est au ralenti, le chômage à son plus haut en quatre ans, l’immigration illégale bat des records, l’inflation reste plus élevée qu’ailleurs en Europe.
En parallèle, le parti de Nigel Farage, Reform UK, poursuit son ascension dans les sondages, capitalisant sur le rejet de l’immigration d’une partie des Britanniques. «Nous avons devant nous le combat de notre vie, nous devons affronter Reform, nous devons les battre», a martelé Keir Starmer dimanche dans une interview à la BBC. «Ils veulent déchirer ce pays», a-t-il ajouté, jugeant «raciste» et «immoral» leur projet d’obliger les migrants non-européens régularisés à refaire une demande à des conditions plus strictes. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | dimanche 28 septembre 2025

Doctor Uses Reform Conference Speech to Link King’s Cancer to Covid Vaccine
THE GUARDIAN: Aseem Malhotra claimed ‘eminent oncologist’ said jab was ‘significant factor in the cancer of members of royal family’
A controversial doctor given top billing at the Reform party conference has used his main-stage speech to air a claim the Covid vaccine caused cancer in the royal family.
The speech by Aseem Malhotra, a British cardiologist who was appointed as a senior adviser to the US health secretary and vaccine sceptic Robert F Kennedy, drew sharp intakes of breath in the Birmingham auditorium where he was handed a prime speaking slot.
After setting out what he said were findings showing that vaccines “created havoc” in the human body, Malhotra said he had been asked to share something by a doctor who he described as one of Britain’s most eminent oncologists.
“He thinks it’s highly likely that the Covid vaccines have been a factor, a significant factor in the cancer of members of the royal family,” said Malhotra, who had previously said: “This isn’t just his opinion many other doctors feel the same way.”
The remarks drew immediate condemnation from the health secretary, Wes Streeting, and others.
“When we are seeing falling numbers of parents getting their children vaccinated, and a resurgence of disease we had previously eradicated, it is shockingly irresponsible for Nigel Farage to give a platform to these poisonous lies,” said Streeting.
“Farage should apologise and sever all ties with this dangerous extremism.” » | Ben Quinn | Saturday, September 6, 2025

Truth To Power: Fascism at Our Door: Reform UK's HIDDEN Agenda

Michael Lambert: Why the UK Economy Will Collapse without Immigrants
Aug 30, 2025 | The UK economy is not doing well. The much-needed growth is not happening and the national debt is almost 100% of GDP whilst interest amounts to £116 billion per annum or over £2 billion per week. We know that taxes will have to rise in the forthcoming budget.
The UK has an ageing population who are living longer and costing more in terms of care and medical treatment. To maintain our current population level we need a birth rate of 2.1 children per woman whereas the current rate is just 1.4. This means that the proportion of the population who are earning is diminishing and so is taxable income. This can only be solved by immigration.
However, Nigel Farage the man who brought us the disastrous Brexit, and his party, Reform UK have been pursuing a very public anti-immigration campaign. At the same time, the government under Keir Starmer have made it almost impossible for anyone to come to the UK to work unless they first secure employment at a rate of at least £37,000 per annum.
Without a larger workforce expanding the tax-take for the government, it is difficult to see how the UK will survive financially.
For the time being, Farage leads an ever-growing anti-immigration policy which both Starmer and the Conservatives have decided to follow.
At the start of this video, I discuss last week's cabinet meeting in the White House which was little more than an event to boost the ego of Donald Trump who ranted about how good he is for 45 minutes before being praised by most of his Secretaries of State. Steve Witkoff, who features in this video, was exceptionally embarrassing in lavishing praise upon the president.

Lee Anderson’s Constituents Stunned When They’re Told about Reform’s NHS Plans
THE LONDON ECONOMIC: "I thought the Reform party were more on our side."
Lee Anderson’s constituents have been left stunned after being told about Reform UK’s plans for the NHS.
Whilst Reform may be experiencing a surge in the polls, one issue they can’t seem to shake off their backs is the fact their leader, Nigel Farage, has previously called for the NHS to move towards an insurance-based system.
Reform’s Anderson was re-elected as MP for Ashfield last July, but it turns out a fair few of his constituents aren’t quite aware of his leader’s views.
So, the Trades Union Congress decided to head to Ashfield to open their eyes to what Farage has said in the past about the NHS. » | Charlie Herbert | Wednesday, July 27, 2025
‘Farage collapsed the economy with Brexit, and faced no consequences’ – Stephen Flynn: With the BBC facing criticism about the amount of airtime they are giving Nigel Farage, some awkward questions have started to emerge. »
Nigel Farage is a fraud. The NHS would NOT be safe in his hands. People who would vote for that egocentric and self-serving man would need their heads read! Keep Farage&Co well away from Downing Street! He has stuffed up the country once already, with Brexit. Don’t let him finish off the job. – © Mark Alexander

Michael Lambert: Farage for PM? Are We Completely Mad?
Aug 2, 2025 | Nigel Farage, more than anyone else is responsible for the disastrous Brexit which everyone can now see has been extremely damaging to the UK and yet he is the favourite to become the next Prime Minister of the UK.
Despite the massive damage Brexit has done to the UK economy, reputation and standing in the world Nigel Farage accepts no responsibility for the results of Brexit, preferring to blame others. And yet an ever increasing number of people seem prepared to vote for Farage's new party UK.
His fellow MPs, Richard Tice, Lee Anderson and newly-elected Sarah Pochin are all inexperienced whilst two other MPs, Rupert Lowe and James McMurdoch have both been forced to resign over different scandals.
Many voters who are disappointed with the current Labour government and others who are disappointed with the Conservative opposition may well vote for Reform UK in protest.

Reform UK MP Wants to Kill the NHS by Opting Out?
Clearly, Rupert Lowe is an ignorant man! An ignorant man in a party led by a numbskull!
So, if this man opts out of the NHS, what happens to him if he is involved in a car accident? When a person is in a car accident, regardless of whether he/she has private health insurance or not, the person is taken to the NEAREST NHS HOSPITAL. There is no time to drive the injured patient to a private hospital of his choice. Even if the injured person has the most expensive health insurance available, he/she will be driven poste haste to the nearest NHS hospital – and free of charge. By contrast, when I once needed an ambulance in the States to take me to the nearest hospital which was only five miles down the road, I ended up with a bill of approximately $650 — that was about thirteen years ago — for the one-way trip. At the time, I could have flown from Boston to Heathrow second class cheaper! So much for the American private healthcare system!
The NHS is no longer as good as it used to be, largely because of Cameron and his Conservative henchmen who imposed austerity on the nation, but it can be improved again. And it will. It must be. Let the Americans have their hugely expensive private healthcare system, and we’ll stick to the NHS. Even with an NHS, it is still possible to have private medical care on top of it. But this is usually used for elective medical care rather than for emergencies.
It seems to me that all that was good about this country is under attack now from the far right. We must resist their attempts to destroy the UK. – © Mark Alexander

Twelve Reform UK Councillors to Resign over Nigel Farage’s Leadership
THE GUARDIAN: Exclusive: Departures will add to pressure on party leader after Elon Musk said he was ‘not up to the job’
A dozen Reform UK councillors have given notice of their intention to resign en masse in protest at Nigel Farage’s leadership.
The resignations could come as early as Friday evening and will add to pressure on the Reform leader after Elon Musk said he was “not up to the job”. They are timed to overshadow the party’s south-east conference this weekend.
The councillors alleged the party was being run in an “autocratic manner” and accused Farage of “disloyalty” to long-term members. There are splits within the party over the jailed far-right activist Tommy Robinson, who is supported by Musk. » | Ben Quinn | Friday, January 10, 2025

Musk's Dad: Tommy Robinson Will Lead Britain, He's Like Mandela
Jan 7, 2025 | “History will tell you that there's a very good chance that Tommy Robinson will one day be the prime minister of England.”
Tommy Robinson’s imprisonment will lead to him becoming leader as it did with Nelson Mandela after he was sentenced to life in prison in South Africa in 1964, says Elon Musk’s father Errol Musk.
Tommy Robinson understands the problem this country and the West has with Islam pretty well — Did he read my book years ago, I wonder? — but he is hardly prime minister material.
Why is this Musk family interfering in the political affairs of other countries? Who do the Musks think they are? Having loads of dosh doesn’t give them the right to steer the politics of Western nations to the far right!
As an aside, it is pretty obvious to me that the Musks have got far more money than they have class (or common sense)! My advice to Musk and his father: STFU! – © Mark Alexander

The Threat of Elon Musk's Money
That hypocrite Nigel Farage doesn’t care about “loss of sovereignty” now, does he? As long as the money is going into his coffers, he doesn’t give a damn about loss of sovereignty.
As for Musk and his gazillions, let him shove his political donation where the monkey shoves its nuts! The UK is enough of a plutocracy as it is, and our democracy is very weak already. We don’t need these tech-billionaires to come here and weaken it still further. – © Mark Alexander

The Guardian View on Elon Musk and UK Politics: Interference In Plain Sight
THE GUARDIAN – EDITORIAL: American tech billionaires are no more entitled to meddle in British democracy than other foreign oligarchs
Under most circumstances, a British politician seeking cash from a foreign oligarch would make the approach discreetly. Recipient and donor would worry about the relationship looking improper even if the deal could be done without breaching UK electoral law.
Nigel Farage has no such qualms. The Reform leader has boasted of his recent meeting with Elon Musk, the world’s richest person, at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. Nick Candy, a former Conservative donor and now the Reform party’s treasurer, was also present. Photographs and statements from the British visitors testify to their eagerness that the meeting – and the fact that money was discussed – attract maximum publicity.
Mr Musk has denied reports that he is considering making a multimillion-pound donation to Reform. But he has a proven appetite for meddling in British politics. He has used his X platform to attack Sir Keir Starmer, amplify radical rightwing rhetoric and post inflammatory remarks, including a forecast of civil war in the aftermath of riots over the summer. » | Editorial | Wednesday, December 18, 2024
