LIVE: Nigel Farage hosts largest Reform UK rally in Birmingham

Reform UK say they are holding "the biggest ever launch rally in modern British political history", at the Arena in Birmingham. Farage has ruled out an election pact with the Conservatives as he called Kemi Badenoch lazy and her party’s MPs “stuffy, boring old bastards”. READ MORE: The Reform leader gave his strongest indication yet he would not seek a deal to unite the right, instead saying “we pretty much despise” the Tories. Badenoch has also resisted striking a deal with Farage. But some senior figures in her own party have quietly been urging figures in both camps to agree a non-aggression pact and focus resources in different seats.

We’re not Tory-lite,” Farage told journalists in parliament on Thursday. “In fact, frankly, we pretty much despise them for their level of betrayal.” Read the best of our journalism: https://www.thetimes.com/ Subscribe to The Times and The Sunday Times YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/subscription_...
