MATT GOODWIN: Exactly how Reform is plotting to take over Number 10 - and reshape our politics for ever
Imagine this: It’s May 2029 and Britain has just held a General Election. But having successfully predicted many events the Establishment dismissed as preposterous – from Brexit to both of Donald Trump’s presidencies – I think that Nigel Farage has every chance of pulling it off. From left, Nick Candy, Elon Musk and Nigel Farage in Florida this week I’m also a passionate patriot who sympathises with the millions of ordinary Britons who have flocked to his upstart party, fed up with the consensus on soaring immigration, tax, wokery and Net Zero that unites Left and Right – or what Reformers call the ‘Uniparty’. Between today and the next General Election, I believe Nigel Farage will manage to take over the entire system, pulling off the same kind of political ‘realignment’ as his close ally Trump just achieved in America. If they’re smart, Reform will focus on the areas they plan to target at the next General Election such as Essex, Hampshire and Lincolnshire – councils now under Tory control.
