- Two Reform UK officials who were caught up in an undercover sting have stepped down from their roles in the party.
Dan Jukes, Senior aide to Nigel Farage and James Orr, Reform's Head of Policy, have both left their roles, the party confirmed this morning. Reform denies any wrongdoing.
A Reform UK spokesman said: "Reform UK has launched an investigation following the broadcast of a Channel 4 News programme.

"The party believes it is important that the investigation is allowed to proceed independently and without prejudice. No further comment will be made while the investigation is ongoing."
Reform UK chairman Lee Anderson said this morning that there is “no chance” of the pair returning to the party.

Farage said: "This is a massive sting operation. It must have cost them hundreds of thousands of pounds, all foreign funded, by the way.

Shelagh Fogarty is joined by Republican Overseas' Greg Swenson to react to the plea.
During the hearing, prosecutors laid out what they called "overwhelming" evidence that Robinson, 23, fired the single round that killed Kirk, 31, as he held one of the campus debates that had helped propel him to national prominence.
Defence lawyers argued the shooting did not meet the standard for a death penalty charge. Now it will be up to a jury to decide.

It comes as long-term borrowing costs have been sent soaring to their highest levels for 28 years. Mr Burnham blamed this on market turbulence and the Tory record on rising debt, declaring “we are turning that corner”.

During his speech, he blamed 'privatisation, austerity, and Brexit' for Britain's economic woes, and said that the country has been going in the wrong direction since the 70's, which seemed to be a nod to Thatcher.
