The Farage-fest that shows Reform is on the rise

Two figures loomed large at the Alliance for Responsible Citizens (ARC) conference in East London today. Donald Trump - whose playbook many of the delegates want to see copied in the UK - and a certain Nigel Farage.Hot off the back of fresh YouGov polling that puts Reform in the lead on 27pc to Labour’s 25pc and the Conservatives’ 21pc, Farage took the opportunity to repeat to a cheering crowd that there would be no deal with Kemi Badenoch to unite the right. Kamal and Camilla were watching side of stage, and put Farage’s views on the future of the UK right to former Tory cabinet minister and now editor of The Spectator, Michael Gove. President of the Heritage Foundation Kevin Roberts was also on hand to explain just how much influence his think tank’s ‘Project 2025’ manifesto is having on President Trump’s administration so far. And they also caught up with Ayaan Hirsi Ali, the Somalian-born activist, campaigner and critic of Islam, who explains why she thinks Islamism can be defeated.Producer: Lilian FawcettSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsSocial Media Producer: Rachel WelshVideo Editor/Camera Operator: Andy MackenzieEditor: Camilla TomineyOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.
