To share this fantastic documentary exposing Reform for the crooks and traitors that they really are. Thank you for sharing @ihateboris

I'd recommend watching it to the end.

I agree with Mrs B. That would be the end of Reform. There is a reason why Reform has never selected Yusuf to run as an MP.

I can really see him giving it a try, failing, bailing and then Tice will step forward with his enthusiastic hand movements and intonation to be leader.

Farage is supposed to be giving a speech at the Reform conference, but due to "unforseen circumstances" there is some sort of delay/problem...

Has he had a fit of the vapours?

Security breach

Reform seem to be fielding their B team on Mumsnet today.

It's heartening to see so few offering any kind of defence of them.

Yes, apparently Greenpeace somehow managed to get a banner on stage while Tice was doing his thing. Portraying Farage as Mr Monopoly, collecting £5m as he passed go! 🤣

The picture that I saw of Tice on the BBC made him look a bit like a tacky game show host.

Farage has already been heckled, I see.

I thought he'd received £5m for his security. You couldn't make this shit up.

Lots of hecklers in the audience now 🤣🤣

I have to say that this is quite interesting;

Nigel Farage has signed a “stop the boats forever” treaty with Jordan Bardella, the leader of the French National Rally party, pledging to return illegal migrants to France.

So a man who will never lead a country signs a fantasy treaty with another person who’ll never be a leader ??

Exactly

And completely off-topic too

placemats · 04/09/2026 17:46

Did a canal boat arrive at the conference door?

Anyway the emphasis in his speech seems to be "We will stop the boats.".

How original.

What relevance do you think this has to the evidence presented in the Channel 4 documentary about Reform seeking to accept illegal foreign donations?

As you're bringing it up on this thread, I assume that you think there is some connection. Are you suggesting that Reform UK are also accepting illegal donations from Jordan Bardella?

Farage has a lot in common with National Rally, a far right party of convicted fraudsters.

As PP have said, the worst part about it is that I don’t think the majority of Reform voters will care in the slightest.

Most Reform voters can’t actually articulate why they vote for them beyond a) bloody foreigners b) stop the boats and c) good old Nige is the man of the people.

I don’t think they especially care about his £5 million bung and they certainly won’t care about this - not that they’ll even know about it in all probability.

In the same way as diehard Trump supporters don’t care how corrupt and dishonest he is.

shecanbe · 04/09/2026 17:56

Reform voters won't care. Most only watch GB News and so will just parrot the usual - it's all down to 'the establishment' or its 'AI' or 'they're all as bad as each other.' Most of them won't even understand the film anyway.

Well, that has been evident from some of the posts on this thread. Zero understanding but blind loyalty to Farage regardless.

MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack · 04/09/2026 18:00

Farage looks rattled though. I just watched him responding to the heckler and he was trying a little bit too hard to look like he thought it was hilarious. He has had a really shit day, for sure. And deservedly so. The next few months will be even shitter for him.

Well, you've omitted important details like

the expose of Blair's speech writer came via Sir Andrew Green's self-formed right-wing think tank MigrationwatchUK.

Also, Farage and Boris made such a cock-up with Brexit, they had to import more of the foreigners you hate.

Make it make sense, because there's not much of it in your post apart from a rant and a few historical names.

What's your new identity? Incoherent and angry rambler?

If you enjoy rambling, I can send you a map for the Sunlit Uplands and a bus timetable for the Number 350 - after all I know how Reform are so keen on use of public transport to reduce emissions and getting us to net zero 😁.

According to these articles it was the speechwriter himself who first dropped the bombshell in an article he penned for the Evening Standard in 2009:

Some fairly obvious deflection going on.

TemperanceWest · 04/09/2026 18:11

Do you have any views about the thread topic @Clavinova ?

Notonthestairs · 04/09/2026 18:11

Farage has been reported to the Standards Commissioner, again.

shecanbe · 04/09/2026 18:11

Reform voters will be fine with their so-called 'man-of-the-people' public school leaders discussing illegal overseas donations while quaffing champagnes and oysters. They will see no hypocrisy in the two members who have now been summarily sacked following the documentary, even though Farage himself specifically flew into the pub by helicopter purely due to the prospect of much larger, ongoing donations. Now he's trying to pretend he was misled! But he was there - thanking them. Farage could literally be in prison. Reform voters would probably be quite impressed if he was - "it's all the establishment innit."

To be fair, Andy Burnham was happy to sit next to a convicted fraudster at PMQs this week.
