Nigel Farage MP (Clacton/Reform UK) is a politician on a mission. He wants to put politics back into the hands of UK citizens.
He hates references to irrelevant places, knowing that local government serves people in ways others can’t.
“It won’t be Iran that helps us,” he once said to me, referring to the disruption of local areas by protesters. “Those households need to pipe down,” he also said.
His party, Reform UK, needs to make significant gains to take on the Conservative party, which he sees as “failing us massively” on many policy issues.
He doesn’t hate the Tories, but he despises delay and loathes laziness.
He’s a politician with attitude, and as his media tours have indicated, it drives his effort to reach out.
The long term strategy is Number 10, but his aim in the meantime is to win people over to his program of events anywhere they want him.
