Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK
The leaders of Reform UK are using by-elections to help build a mass, far right party.
Standing in by elections helps them identify organisers and activists and sink roots into neighbourhoods. They are a rehearsal for the local council elections in May—and parliamentary elections in Wales and Scotland where Reform UK hopes to gain.
Nigel Farage is a racist, rich establishment insider. But he poses as an anti-establishment insurgent and deflects people’s anger through racist scapegoating of migrants and Muslims and blaming a “liberal elite”.
Reform UK’s multimillionaire leadership is trying to point the finger away from the bosses, bankers and the super rich—who they want to slash taxes for.
It’s straight out of Donald Trump’s far right playbook—and it’s no wonder Farage was in the United States celebrating his win in the presidential election. Reform UK is a party that whips up racism and Islamophobia and looks with admiration at fascists in Europe.
Our task is to expose Reform UK’s far right politics and racism, its anti-establishment fakery and its pro-boss agenda. Is there a Reform UK candidate standing in your local area? Get in touch with Stand Up To Racism to campaign against them.
