In today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley are at Reform UK’s party conference for Day Two, which was overshadowed by a Channel 4 investigation which exposed claims the party breached political donation rules and allegedly had polling paid for by an overseas company. Camilla and Tim dissect whether the claims will impact Reform’s core support, and whether Nigel Farage can survive yet another scandal as leader of the party.

In today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley are at Day One of Reform UK’s party conference, where they spoke to honorary treasurer and entrepreneur Nick Candy, who made the explosive claim that Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch had asked Boris Johnson to run as a candidate against Nigel Farage in the last Clacton by-election.

Elsewhere, Camilla and Tim sat down with Reform’s Danny Kruger, who was defiant about defecting to the party, declaring Reform was “what the Tory party always should have been”.

Meanwhile, Lee Anderson, the Reform MP for Ashfield, spoke to Camilla and Tim about his stance on holding a referendum on the death penalty, how Reform plans to overhaul the welfare system and why Labour voters who switched to the Conservatives in 2019’s election are prime targets for Reform today.
