Before you read, this was meant to be a second part of my Labour post that's gonna be about claims going around that the party is now owned by lobbyists, but now I'm going to pivot the focus to Reform as to call them out.
Run by Nigel Farage, I think that right-wing populist party poses a bigger threat than Labour and I'll tell you why.
The things that party has accomplished, so far:
- Persuading the British public to exit the EU by setting up false promises (as Brexit Party)
- Hiring a creep who previously worked at the Conservative Party
- Managing to win a few spots in a recent local election, which Reform had convinced themselves to be a second party after they've gained enough supporters
Although, some parts of their manifesto are as scandalous as Project 2025 like:
- Reducing legal immigration and increasing National Insurance for foreign employees
- Abolishing transgender ideology in schools and universities with their "patriotic curriculum".
- Willing to increase drilling for gas and oil, just like Trump does.
- Cutting rate of corporation taxes from 25% to 20% and then 15% during its third year of Parliament.
- Leaving the ECHR, just why?
- Instituting zero-tolerance policing by increasing the number of officers to 40,000.
Well, there's nothing else I can list, but I can tell you Reform UK is something you wouldn't want to be allies with.
That's also why an upcoming watchdog (Reform Watch) exists, because they want to show you the truth about the party, so thank you for reading my article and farewell.

idk, being worse than labour is a pretty low bar, there is some (SOME...) sense to what they say.
