Reform latest: Nigel Farage on path to win Clacton seat and huge gains across UK
Reform On The Rise
Nick Gutteridge, the main political reporter, states:
The pivotal moment in Reform’s campaign happened when Nigel Farage declared he was assuming control of the leadership and running for office as a Member of Parliament.
During a meeting with reporters on June 3, Mr. Farage changed his mind about not participating in the election. He announced that he would run for office in Clacton-on-Sea.
Only 10 days after the experienced politician made a comeback, the party surpassed the Tories in the opinion polls for the first time.
A recent study conducted by YouGov on June 13th showed that Reform party has 19% of the vote, surpassing the Conservatives who only have 18%.
Senior members of the Conservative party viewed Mr. Farage's comeback as a catastrophe, essentially crushing any chances of catching up to Labour in the polls.
Downing Street was surprised when calling the unexpected election did not diminish the increasing danger posed by Reform.
Nick Gutteridge, the top journalist covering politics, shares his thoughts:
This election is a big win for Nigel Farage's party, showing its first significant success in terms of winning seats.
The preliminary poll outcome indicates that Nigel Farage is likely to win his first seat as a Member of Parliament after trying seven times before, triumphing in the Clacton-on-Sea constituency.
Reform Party Polling At 13%
The initial poll results are in: they indicated that the Labour party would have a significant lead of 170 seats, while also predicting the smallest number of Conservative MPs ever seen.
According to the survey results, it is predicted that the Liberal Democrats will secure 61 seats, while Reform UK is projected to win 13 seats and the Green Party is expected to claim two seats.
In Scotland, it is predicted that the SNP will win 10 seats, while Plaid Cymru in Wales is expected to secure four seats.
Missed The Campaign?
A refresher on why Nigel Farage is back in the spotlight.
Appearing everywhere on TV and radio, Mr. Farage, also known as "Mr. Brexit" by Donald Trump, didn't stop working after his party's role in Boris Johnson's big victory in 2019. He didn't take a break.
However, this marks the first occasion in five years where he has had a significant impact on shaping the political course of the United Kingdom.
Mr. Farage came out of the jungle of I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Here, thankfully fully clothed, and excited Brexit supporters by revealing his plans to join the election campaign.
Rishi Sunak would have been feeling discontent or unhappy.
The 60-year-old Mr. Farage is always stirring up discussion and is frequently engaging, in a way that Mr. Sunak, who is much younger, has never been able to achieve.
The support from the public has boosted Reform UK's momentum as Mr. Farage takes the lead in steering mainstream conservatism towards the Right direction.
