Hours after Reform announced their Makerfield by-election candidate today, his X account was suspended. Screenshots show him replying to a man jailed for stirring up racial hatred during the Southport riots.

Seventeen Reform officials suspended, expelled or resigned in less than two weeks since the elections. More than one in ten of their 2025 councillors were gone within a year. They are on course to exceed that rate considerably faster this time.

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.

18,000 signatures and counting. Thousands of voters are making themselves clear. This is not the moment for Labour MPs to detonate their own government and hand Farage exactly what he wants. No chaos. No leadership circus. No opening for Reform. Tell your MP to hold the line.

We must oppose any leadership challenges against Starmer. He needs to remain our PM. Tell your MP to reject the stalking horse threat to Starmer: Holdtheline.org.uk via @jackdart.bsky.social

Reform UK were rejected by more than 70% of voters yesterday, and the media is treating the result as terminal for Labour while almost entirely ignoring the fact that most people said no to the hatred, the division and the bigotry. That is the actual story.

If you haven’t voted yet, make sure you do. But when you do, vote tactically to keep Reform out!

I, a Liberal Democrat, just voted tactically for Labour to stop the worst, most dangerous party of my lifetime, winning in my area. Vote tactically today! Keep Reform UK out.

Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson and Donald Trump are not random names in Farage’s orbit. They point to a politics that treats women’s equality as part of what has gone wrong by @reformwatch.org

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 says Britain can trust it on firearms. Farage’s record, and the harder politics growing around him, say otherwise by @reformwatch.org

This is astonishing. Kudos to @jackdart.bsky.social

What an ordeal. Remember, don’t vote Reform on May 7.

Reform’s Basildon leader films residents on their doorsteps with hidden camera glasses, was arrested on suspicion of stalking and harassment, posted footage mocking a disabled young man, and has been accused of bullying a Reform colleague. Farage maintains Reform has the best vetting in Britain.

Reform Watch & The New World – Reform UK Election Files Nathaniel Menday, candidate for Woodhouse in Sheffield, praised Nazi-era architecture, identified as an ethno-nationalist, and promoted a neo-Nazi symbol, placing extremist ideology firmly in the open.

Reform Watch & The New World – Reform UK Election Files Malcolm Offord, Holyrood candidate for Inverclyde and Reform UK Scotland leader, made a crude and offensive joke about George Michael in a public speech, remarks widely described as insulting despite his later attempt to dismiss them.

Nigel Farage received a £5m personal gift from his biggest donor and changed his mind about standing for parliament within a fortnight. Neither of them told anyone. He has since been referred to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards.

Reform Watch & The New World – Reform UK Election Files Kate Michaela, candidate for St Mary’s ward in Adur, shared offensive posts about Muslims and promoted grotesque conspiracy theories. This is the kind of rhetoric that fuels hostility towards targeted communities.

Read my list of the 40 worst Reform candidates on May 7 in The New World. What an utter shower.

Reform Watch & The New World – Reform UK Election Files. Andrew Mahon, candidate for Blackburn South-East, praised Oswald Mosley, used racist language, and made homophobic and sexist remarks. That is a worldview unfit for public office.

James Orr flew to Arizona to pay tribute to a man who said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake, described immigration as mass demographic reconfiguration, and asked out loud what an Englishman even is if anyone can become one. This is the man who shapes Reform's programme for government.

Another week, another woeful Reform candidate, this time tarnishing the ballot papers of Barnet. Meet Leo Fruhman, candidate for Mill Hill ward in Barnet. hopenothate.org.uk/2026/04/28/e...

No one is surprised.

Two more Reform candidates exposed today, one wanting every Romanian gone and Islam outlawed, another posting antisemitic conspiracy theories and urging rioters to destroy a mosque. Farage says Reform has the best vetting in Britain. The evidence suggests otherwise.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

85% of Reform UK voters think London is unsafe. 63% of people who actually live here say it is safe. That gap was created deliberately. The dystopia is a lie. #London #ReformUK #Farage #Politics

One woman is killed by a man every three days in the United Kingdom. One in four have been raped or sexually assaulted. 93% of domestic abuse perpetrators are male. This is on us. It is on men. We have to do better.

Half a million people marched through London today. The biggest demonstration against the far right in British history. I was proud to be among them. They will not win. #TogetherAlliance #Politics

Placard Watch!

London rejects the far right!

A Reform councillor overseeing children's religious education posted that Africans are "backward." She is the third racism scandal from the same Reform-run council in Staffordshire, and Nigel Farage still calls this a vetting process. #ReformUK #Farage #Politics

Wherever Reform UK goes, the same thing happens. Extremists get through, leaders look the other way, and critics are told to grow up. Scotland. Wales. London. The same story, every time. This is who they are. #ReformUK #MalcolmOfford #Scotland

Polling confirms Reform UK is Britain's least popular party as voters seek to curb Nigel Farage's influence in May's elections.

Nigel Farage took £585,000 from GB News. His MPs declared another £770,000. Four billionaires have spent £170M building the media machine putting Reform in your living room every night. Today the Guardian exposed them and what they expect in return. This is a political project funded from the top.

Reform UK is now Britain’s most unpopular party. More voters view it negatively than Labour or the Conservatives.

Brexit cost this country £180 billion a year in lost economic output, enough to build 140 new hospitals every single year. The people who did it are now asking for your vote again. #Brexit #NigelFarage #ReformUK

The media has convinced you that Keir Starmer is the worst Prime Minister in history. They're lying to you.

James Orr’s Question Time debut matters. He is Nigel Farage’s policy chief, opposes abortion in all circumstances, and is tied into JD Vance’s hard right network in the US. This is not fringe thinking. It is now at the centre of Reform UK.

Nigel Farage recorded a paid endorsement for a Canadian neo-Nazi group. The Guardian has the footage. This is who he is when he thinks no one important is watching. #ReformUK #NigelFarage #Politics

Farage says one thing. Reform tell you not to worry. Here's why you absolutely should.

Reform’s deputy leader avoided £580,000 in corporation tax. He’s the man who called Angela Rayner the biggest hypocrite in the land for far less.

Reform lost four of five council seats on Thursday while their national support collapses. YouGov has them at 23%, down more than seven points from their peak. The advance that once looked unstoppable is falling apart. #ReformUK #UKPolitics #NigelFarage

Thirty years after Dunblane, Farage was asked in the Commons to retract calling the handgun ban "ludicrous." He declined. His 2025 statement that Reform has "no plans to loosen gun laws" is not a retraction. He has never said the ban was right. #UKPolitics

Farage called for war with Iran. Then blamed Labour for the price of fuel.

Reform is accepting cryptocurrency donations. Farage has admitted receiving some. Nothing has been declared to the Electoral Commission. This week Nigel Farage personally invested £215,000 in a Bitcoin company alongside Blockchain, the same firm that gave $5 million to Donald Trump's super PAC.

Nigel Farage sent voters leaflets promising to cut council tax. Every single Reform council raised it. When confronted on his own leaflets, he shouted “wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong” and started talking about Iran. Reform Watch is tracking every promise and every broken pledge. ReformWatch.org.

120 people have defected into Reform UK. 95 of them came from the Conservative Party. 48 have already left. This is not a movement. It is the Conservative Party, rebranded and falling apart. Reform Watch launches tomorrow. Sign up at ReformWatch.org

Reform elected an MP convicted of assaulting his girlfriend and defended him. They took £13K from American anti-abortion lobby groups, and voted against every meaningful protection for women in Parliament. And when they talk about women’s safety, they mean one thing, their obsession: immigration.

Nigel Farage has cried fraud every single time he has lost an election. Oldham. Peterborough. Rochdale. Gorton and Denton. Every time, no evidence. Every time, the result stood. The man calling postal voting a threat to democracy voted by post himself in 2024. Reform Watch launches Friday.
