Brexit hero and Donald J. Trump’s ally Nigel Farage is taking his Reform UK party to new heights.
On the one hand, it’s a ramification of the global ‘Trump effect’; on the other, Britain is falling back to the European trend of seeing right-wing parties surging all over the continent.
It arises now that Reform UK has overtaken Labour in a national opinion poll for the very first time.
The Telegraph reported:
“Nigel Farage’s party commands 24 per cent of public support, according to Find Out Now – up by two points on last week. The poll of 2,607 adults, conducted on Wednesday, shows Labour on 23 per cent – down two points on last week – while the Tories lead with 26 per cent.”
As first voting intention poll puts Reform ahead of Labour, Zia Yusuf, the Reform chairman, boasted that they would win the next general election, while Farage reacted with pure delight.

Just last week, the party crossed the important milestone of 100,000 members.
“Mr. Yusuf said: “Reform has all the momentum in British politics. Reform is now polling at 24 per cent and, for the first time, we are now polling ahead of Labour. We recently surged past 100,000 members, are adding members at a record pace, and we are just getting started.
The British people want real change after years of failure and deception. Reform will form the next government of the United Kingdom.”

The poll had bad news for leftists Liberal Democrats, at 11 per cent, and the Greens at nine per cent, totally in line with the recent European trend.
After growing tired of attracting former Tory voters, Farage is now focused on winning over people who supported Labour in the last election or are otherwise uninclined to vote.
“It comes as Sir Keir sought to move on from a series of scandals in his first five months with a major speech on Thursday in which he outlined six “milestones” for his Government.”
