❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Reform UK will declare a “national emergency” during its first day in office, according to party leader Nigel Farage. 📺 DETAIL: Farage’s proposal comes ahead of his speech at Reform’s 2026 National Conference. The Reform leader is expected to warn that “time is running out to save Britain” and accuse the formerly governing Conservative (Tory) Party of “wasting their 14 years in office.” Farage is also expected to criticize Labour Party Prime Minister Andy Burnham for demanding another decade in government. It is also expected that Farage will outline Reform’s plan to work “day and night” to pass “dozens of bills” with the aim of doing “anything and everything” to halt the decline of Britain. Reform’s plan reportedly includes week-long parliamentary sittings, even during summer. Farage will also reportedly issue a stern warning to the permanent Civil Service, the House of Lords, and the judiciary that a Reform government will resist any attempts to block or disrupt their agenda. Reform’s party conference in Birmingham, in the English Midlands, is expected to be attended by over 8,000 delegates. The conference’s theme revolves around the question of what the party would set out to achieve within its first 100 days in office. 💬 KEY QUOTE: “Britain is in serious trouble. We don’t have time to wait around to fix it,” said a spokesman for Reform UK. 🎯 IMPACT: This indicates that Farage intends to use his speech at his party’s annual conference to convey a sense of urgency. Recent polling suggests that Reform will be the largest party in Parliament come the next general election, which must be held no later than 2029. |
