Richard Tice Elected Leader of Reform UK
Farage Passes Baton With Local Elections Looming
Former Brexit Party Head to Stand in Clacton
Richard Tice has been elected leader of Reform UK, formerly the Brexit Party. Nigel Farage, who founded the party in 2021, has handed over the leadership with just weeks to go until the local elections.
Tice, a businessman and politician, has previously worked closely with Farage and is known for his strong stance on Brexit. His election as leader is seen as a way for Reform UK to consolidate its position on the political landscape ahead of the elections.
Farage will continue to play a key role in the party as president, while Tice will focus on leading the party through the upcoming elections. The party has gained representation in the Scottish Parliament with the addition of former MSP Michelle Ballantyne, and will field candidates in the local elections in England and Wales.
