The party has set out a four-point plan on tackling illegal immigration that would involve leaving the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), with zero illegal immigrants being resettled in the UK, a new government department for immigration, and migrants crossing the Channel in small boats being returned to France.
Mr Farage said in the foreword to the party’s manifesto: “The Tories have broken Britain. Labour will bankrupt Britain. A vote for either is a vote for more dishonesty and defeat.”
Nigel Farage said he intended to use the 2024 general election as a springboard to fight to be prime minister at the next national contest in 2029.
The leader of Reform UK said he wanted July 4 to result in his party having a “bridgehead” in the House of Commons.
He would then use that to build a “big national campaigning movement around the country over the course of the next five years for genuine change”.
Asked if it was his intention to therefore be vying to be PM at the next election, Mr Farage told the BBC Radio 4 Today programme: “Yes, absolutely.”

I'm from Australia and so it's not really my business but I think a lot of people will like what Nige has to say here. Seems pretty sincere and he's actually likeable which is rare.

How any Brit can listen to Nigel here and disagree with anything he says is beyond me. He's more inspiring than the other party leaders combined

I do hope there's a huge upset at the next election. I can't wait to see Nagging Manshetty and Penfold on the Bbc breakfast labour red sofa the morning after this political shake-up. Vote Reform. 🗳

Labour, will need a very strong opposition to keep them in check. Reform is going to be the ONLY party who stand a chance of doing that. Every other party will be a complete wasted vote.

VOTE REFORM and get these Extreme left & Communist councillors and politicians out! Here, hear we need to REFORM’ this country from within then work on the cultural communities and teach them to follow our British laws to the letter! This can only be done if the Police are REFORMED and Rowley is dismissed from his position! VOTE REFORM, Nigel Farage the only true statesman that can put the Great back into Britain 🇬🇧 🏴 🏴🏴
