Nigel Farage has claimed Reform UK is the victim of an “establishment stitch-up” as the party consults lawyers over a candidate vetting firm. Conservative commentator Benedict Spence: “If you outsource the vetting, that is taking your life into your own hands.” @JuliaHB1 https://t.co/oOxsYDX7H3
Farage has pledged to scrap the licence fee as part of Reform UK’s “contract” with voters. He said the licence fee was “taxation without representation” and that, in a world of on-demand TV, people should not be forced to fund the “wasteful” BBC. Go on Nige! 💪#DefundTheBBC

Reform UK plan tax cuts which they say will cost £70bn; however our analysis shows the actual cost will be at least £93bn. And their funding figures are out by £15bn+ All this means Reform UK have a total unfunded cost of at least £38bn - about two Liz Trusses.
