Reform UK is now within touching distance of the share of the vote needed for Nigel Farage to become Prime Minister, one of his top strategist argues. Millionaire entrepreneur Zia Yusuf claims Reform UK could win a narrow majority with 31% of the vote – and the Politico’s poll of polls now has the party in first place on 27%.
Zia says: “Our view is it’s actually a very quick and simple problem to solve if you have the political will. The necessary preconditions are you have to leave the European Convention of Human Rights – Labour are never going to do that.
“You have to announce that nobody who comes here illegally will ever be allowed the right to remain. You have to deport people who come here illegally, so you take away the incentive.
“And you obviously stop giving people free accommodation at the taxpayers’ expense. Labour are not going to stop any of those things.”
