Reform UK faces internal turmoil and leadership challenges

dailymail.co.uk

Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, faces internal turmoil after the suspension of MP Rupert Lowe. A recent poll shows one-third of Reform voters want a new leader, a significant shift from previous support for Farage. Lowe's suspension followed his critical interview, leading to accusations of bullying against him and a police report filed by party chairman Zia Yusuf. This has sparked discontent among party members, with over 200 now supporting a rival movement. Despite the chaos, Reform UK is performing well in local election polls. However, the party has lost several councillors and faces criticism over its leadership and candidate vetting processes, raising questions about Farage's control.
