Press Releases


Richard Tice has rejected the idea of an election pact with Rishi Sunak as the Tories have been warned that they face an “extinction-level event”.

The Reform UK party achieved their best ever by-election results on Thursday, with 13 per cent in Wellingborough and 10 per cent in Kingswood.


Both by-elections saw huge swings that led to Labour winning the seats from the Conservatives, sending alarm bells through the Tory Party.

The leader of Reform claimed the Tories deserved to lose their jobs due to their “woeful performance”.

Tice wrote in the Daily Telegraph: “They cannot be trusted at their word, and we cannot reward failure with more incumbency. Tory MPs deserve to face redundancy for their woeful performance.

“Rishi Sunak says their plan is working. Some plan, as we have just slipped into recession and GDP per head has fallen for almost two years due to their mass low skilled immigration policies.”

He then went on to urge the Tories to “stand aside” and allow Reform to take on Labour in the upcoming general election, in order to prevent the “grave threat of Starmergeddon”.

He added: “This is why we will not be doing any deals with the Tories. We stand everywhere. Instead our intent is to work ever harder over the medium term to reshape the British political landscape.”
