Warning: Distressing and graphic language
An undercover investigation by ITV Exposure into Nigel Farage’s Reform UK has found multiple elected councillors and party candidates expressing racist views and using offensive language.
ITV has obtained secretly recorded footage showing Reform officials from across England and Wales using violent, racist and sexist language.
Councillors Alan Feeney, Chris Whelan and Jamie Campbell did not reply to our request for comment. Councillors Feeney and Whelan have since resigned from Reform UK.
In a statement shared with ITV News, Reform UK said: "Where members, activists and councillors have clearly behaved inappropriately, investigations have commenced. In some cases, there have been suspensions and due process must be followed."
"Reform UK has improved and prioritised its vetting procedures, but from time to time, a handful of individuals who do not share our values will initially make it through vetting. This is the same for all organisations."

A great piece from @RobSetchell @itvanglia on the NFU's calls for homegrown food targets and interest free loans as a report reveals Britain is producing less food than 30 years ago. NFU Norfolk Council Rep Nick Deane and Norfolk member Louis Baugh make the case. @NFUPress

The moment you won the 2026 Vitality T20 Blast!

Nervous about tonight. One more win and we’re nearly there. So much pressure and expectation. And think of the mockery if we lose. Northamptonshire simply have to beat Gloucestershire in the Vitality Blast T20 quarter-final at Wantage Road.
