good for

photographers

hello ladies and gentlemen a very good

afternoon to you thank you very much

indeed for coming uh this afternoon at

very short notice I'm Dr David bull I'm

Deputy leader of Reform UK I don't need

to tell you this is an incredibly

exciting time in British politics reform

UK going up and up in the polls and

that's thanks in no small part to the

gentlemen I want to introduce to you now

ladies and Gentlemen please welcome the

lead UK Richard

[Applause]

TI thank pleasure great to see you thank

you David good afternoon everybody

lovely to see you here in GLA Hall and

goodness me 12 days in does it feel like

a lifetime anyone bored yet no no we've

been trying to create some interest in

this general election campaign and here

we are everyone thought that reform UK

that we'd get squeezed out that was the

prime ministers and the

Tor they said let's try and squeeze

reform down well it's interesting isn't

it what's happening to the polls are we

going down are weing no we're

going yes totally contrary to the Tor

plans actually we're going up in the

poles and that's because we've been

talking about what the country wants to

talk about but the main two parties

they're too embarrassed to talk about it

because it doesn't suit their narrative

or because they've completely messed it

up yes this is and must be the

immigration election that's why when the

news came out about Facebook without

spending anything on Facebook

advertising we're getting the the most

likes the most shares because we're

talking about what people want to talk

about and then campaigning end of last

week in Boston and skes in ashevi we're

getting a fantastic response it is truly

extraordinary but something is going on

out there word is spreading like

wildfire people know there is something

fundamentally rotten wrong with what's

going on in country and people are

working out what it is I've talked about

it Nigel's talked about it huge

unplanned increase in the population is

putting massive pressure on housing on

rents on the affordability of

accommodation the pressure on health and

it's suppressing wages for the lowest

paid the least will off and the young

it's simply

unfair and at least we're prepared to

talk about

it because that's actually what the

country wants to be talking about and

that's why we're going up in the

polls and people are looking for rid of

Interest I mean there's not much

interest in the main two parties in the

polling they're basically not moving all

the tour is are slightly slipping now

I've last week to install a bit of

Interest into this election I've been

talking about

Barbers others have been talking about

hairdressers it's getting people going

why not

we need some interest

but how do we go from

interest to

real how do we actually energ this

election how do we really

say let's turn on the rocket boosters if

we're in our highest pollings 14 15

% that's good I'm delighted with

that but I'm hungry for more I'm

ambitious

ious I want to do ever ever

better and that's why I

thought better than

this we can go from fifth gear through

to sixth gear this is a fossil fueled

car by the

way to what about eighth gear what about

turning on how do we turn on the turbo

boosters the rocket Chargers to this

campaign and as people know I wanted

Nigel

to be to give as much energy and effort

and commitment to this campaign as he

felt able to do now soon that thought

he'd got one ahead of

us and everyone fell for it I thought no

no no let's get some real excit into

that campaign so the big question is

does Nigel want to

stand I've got a different question

and I think this may drive and excite

and Infuse ever more action ever more

boost to reform UK I thought well

actually what I'd really like is to

invite to be leader of Reform UK and to

my absolute

Delight he

accepted so that's what the plan is and

that's why I'm delighted to welcome my

very good friend Nigel to the stage to

take us forward from here thank you very

much

[Applause]

indeed great stuff very very

good Richard thank you very much indeed

now we put out the operations notice for

today under the title emergency election

announcement we did that because we

think this election needs a bit of

gingering up thus far it is the dullest

most boring election campaign we have

ever seen in our lives and it's funny

because the more the two big party

leaders try to be different the more

they actually sound the same uh we've

reached such ridiculous levels uh that

we saw yesterday on the conservatives

social media a post about the cross

Channel illegal migration crisis with

st's got no plan the Tores have reduced

cross Channel migrants by 36% so they've

even come to lying because it's now up

nearly 30% this

year sakir starmer overnight of course

on this big issue of immigration says

that they are going to cut the numbers

he of course the man who campaigned not

just for a second referendum but

believer in open borders and a man who

was a lawyer fought very very hard for

those that arrive on the back of lorries

to get benefits once they got here so

frankly we're in a situation I think

where nobody believes a word that they

say no one's listening people are zoned

out and right at the minute none of the

above is top of the poles by a country

mile and the problem with all this is we

know whoever wins taxes will remain high

the highest tax burden since

1948 everyone's promising not to put

taxes up but nobody talks about reducing

the tax burden we also know that our

people are getting poorer yes we have

growth in the economy the last set of

figures were slightly better than before

GDP they call it we must all bow down to

the god of GDP in fact the more

immigration we have the better the GDP

numbers are because they more people in

the country but what about GDP per

person per capita it went down by almost

7% over the last year so we know that

taxes will stay high we know that mass

immigration will continue regardless of

which party wins power we know that

people will get poorer but we also know

that crime or fear of crime will get

worse London even the wealthier parts of

London have been transformed over the

course of the last few years crime is so

bad now that people generally don't even

bother to report it but it's okay you

can go shoplifting and Nick up to 200

quids worth of Kit before anybody is

even going to prosecute you and these

are all symptoms of a country that

actually is in Decline we're in economic

decline in relative terms oh sure we're

doing better than our former partners in

the European

Union mely behind America and many other

parts of the world we're in Social

Decline and we're actually in a form of

moral decline we've forgotten who we are

as a country we heard a very impassioned

speech by Kier starma this morning about

D-Day and he talked about his own

brother serving on HBS antelope in the

Faulkland and he spoke actually with a

great degree of

passion but here's a little statistic

that sums up what's been wrong with our

ruling classes

on Thursday of this week there'll be

massive International commemorations of

D-Day something in which the British

played an extraordinary part something

which we can be just immensely proud of

in terms of what we were able to

organize able to do and the courage that

people showed but can you believe a poll

out last week showed that

52% of 18 to 34 year olds don't even

know what dday is and that's what you

get when you're led by a career

political class that don't really about

are embarrassed to say anything that

could be seen to be vaguely patriotic oh

we're told that Michael go and others

who improved the education system well

if over half of our young people in this

country do not know about an event that

is within living memory and which should

be one of the proudest things this

nation has ever managed to achieve

something

I think is fundamentally wrong at every

level the center of gravity on every

National debate has moved hugely to the

left since 2010 when David Cameron and

George Osborne took power so we

represent a very different kind of

politics we believe that the Westminster

political class are now more detached

from ordinary folk than they were even

before that referendum stunned everybody

back all those years ago now in

2016 something has gone very very

wrong what we also know is the election

is over it's done labor have won the

election there is not a contest there is

a big MRP poll coming out on Sky News at

5:00 that will confirm all the things

that we've seen before whether the

conservatives get 80 seats or 150 seats

is now almost irrelevant starma has won

this election and that's my fear nothing

will change maybe things will get ever

so slightly worse now I stood here a

week ago and I said look hands up I've

been nonplused by rishy calling a

short-term election doesn't give me the

time to fight a constituency doesn't

give me the time to build up data I

thought the rational thing to do was not

to stand but to do my bit as I put it

supporting the country around the party

and for the last week that is what I've

been doing I've been traveling all

around the country I've had the honor of

appearing with pi Morgan on Question

Time amongst other things I've been to

DOA to talk about the migrant crisis

that I alone I alone predicted four and

a half years ago but more importantly

I've been out on the streets meeting an

awful lot of people and interestingly a

lot

and I'll tell you this and you won't

have got this yet and the pollsters

won't yet have picked this up but I

promise 30 years of experience in this

game something is happening out there

there is a rejection of the political

class going on in this country in a way

that has not been seen in modern

times but the other thing that really

Shook Me In way last week were the

number of people coming up to me on the

street saying Nigel why aren't you

standing and I gave my logical rational

reasons for

it but I couldn't help after each

exchange I simply couldn't help

feeling

somehow they felt I was letting them

down but I wasn't standing up for these

people people in their

Millions who stood with me in some cases

for many many years election battles

referendums and I guess I had been a

champion for many of those

people I took the day off yesterday had

a normal day walked the dogs did a bit

of

fishing popped into the pub you know a

normal sort of day which gave me time to

think and reflect and I began to feel a

terrible sense of

guilt even if it is very difficult for

me to to find a parliamentary

constituency and it is

hard you know here on radio and

television about how many times I've

stood most of the times I stood with for

ukip when we were a fringe party using

elections as an effective pressure group

to make our way through and it is true

the one time I did stand and fight the

conservative party cheated against such

a way that one of the party agents got a

9month prison sentence suspended but of

course the result stood so all those

things been weighing on my mind but

difficult though it is I can't let down

those millions of people I simply can't

do it it'll be wrong I have

decided I've changed my

mind it's allowed you now it's not

always a sign of weakness it could

potentially be a sign of strength so I

am going to stand in this election I'll

be launching my candidacy at midday

tomorrow tomorrow in the Essex Seaside

town of Clon so midday tomorrow Clon at

the end of the paer

[Applause]

um but

perhaps perhaps more important than that

I've made I've made a far bigger

decision than that which is and I've

talked to Richard and he is happy about

it oh of course you'll write your pieces

about how badly we're all getting on

because that's journalism for you

actually I I I regret to say we're

getting on quite

well but Richard is more than happy for

me to my head and shoulders firmly over

the parit and take the Flack so I'm

coming back as leader of Reform UK but

not just for this election campaign I'm

coming back for the next five

years and there is one very simple

reason for that we all know already that

the conservative party will be in

opposition but it won't be the

opposition they are incapable of it

they've spent most of a Last 5 Years

fighting each other rather than standing

up and fighting for the interests of

this country they are split down the

middle on policy and frankly right now

they don't stand for a damn thing RA in

this election is to get many many

millions of votes and I'm talking far

more votes than ukit got back in 20155

when we got 4 million votes get many

many more votes than that how many seats

in Parliament can we win under this

system well that's another matter and

that depends on what momentum we can get

from here when people start to realize

in the red

wo with reform second to labor when they

start to realize that actually in those

seats it's a conservative vote that's a

vote for labor it's a conservative vote

that is a wasted vote then I think we

might just surprise

everybody and I know that you all think

that our votes will simply come from the

conservatives and they'll get crushed

believe me this conservative party under

Richi sunak who nobody ever voted for

not even the conservative party members

voted for this party needs no help in

being crushed it's crushed itself

already and those people who already say

they'll vote reform very few of them

would go back to the conservatives even

if we stood down so we are appealing to

conservative voters we are appealing to

labor voters and those commentators and

journalists that are longer in the tooth

might remember that in 2015 against all

predictions we took more votes from the

labor party than we took from the

conservative party so K sta yes he'll

win but but we're absolutely going to

make sure his percent AG is a lot

smaller than it is now but perhaps above

all what we're appealing to are those

who intend not to vote because they

don't believe there's anybody within the

Westminster establishment that actually

stands up for them very often they're

people running small businesses acting

as Soul Traders they run a plumbing

company they run a taxi company whatever

it is they know and they're right that

nobody in Westminster is on their side

nobody in Westminster even understands

what they do and what we're going to put

forward over the next few years are men

and women that will stand for us

represent us who've got real life

experience us this is not just an

extension of being in the Oxford Union

it isn't just some great big game it's

actually about our country and its

people and we're worried and we're

fearful of many of the impacts that

we've seen we find what happened after

those local elections just a few weeks

ago of C that's winning in leads in

Burnley in Bradford and elsewhere

standing shouting ala abbar standing

shouting we are coming to get you the

birth of sectarian politics in our

country caused by massively

irresponsible immigration policies and

it was the labor party that opened the

door and who would have believed that a

conservative party would have

accelerated it to anyone that says to me

well surely you won't stand against Bill

blogs because he's a really good bloke

and he was a brexiteer the answer is 2.4

million

2.4 million people this conservative

government have allowed to settle in the

UK in the course of the last two years

so whether Bill blogs is a good bloke or

not he has actually been part of what is

a massive

betrayal of 17.4 million people who

voted brexit they voted yes to get back

our indep dependence but they absolutely

voted to get back control of our

borders and Richard said earlier that

this is the immigration election but it

is we have to build a new house every

two minutes just to accommodate those

that are Legally Legally coming in to

Britain the impact on the Health Service

the impact on infrastructure on

everything else we have to get a grip it

is the major issue of our times the

population explosion has devalued the

life of ordinary Britains in just the

most extraordinary way and even if those

in Westminster don't know it I promise

you that those outside of it

do now I want to pay tribute to Richard

who has kept this party going during

times when he was told there was no need

for it no need for it Boris has an 80-

seat majority they're going to deliver

brexit and everything everything that

voters wanted well Richard has kept this

going at Great personal cost in terms of

time and money I'm very pleased to say

Richard From This Moment is going to be

chairman of this party and I hope he's

going to spend as much time in Boston

and skag NES whilst I'm taking the

Flack so we can go up there and win that

constituency and I think back actually

in Boston Richard to 2015 when ukit put

up a 21y old candidate who was a bit bit

green to say the least $1 15,000 votes

I'm sure you're going to get many many

more than that so the really big message

here

is what I'm really calling for what I

intend to lead is a political

Revolt yes a Revolt a turning of our

backs on the political status quo it

doesn't work nothing in this country

works anymore the Health Service doesn't

work the roads don't work none of our

Public Services are up to scratch we are

in Decline this will only be turned

around with boldness we will only

recover our position through economic

growth that will only come when we get

away from just half a dozen

multinationals dominating the thought of

our politicians and allowing real

entrepreneurship to flourish so we're

very very much on the side of the little

guy and woman we're very much on the

side of creating growth we're very much

on the side of end the poisoning of our

education system where 50% of young

people don't even know what dday is so

make no mistake we are unashamedly

patriotic we believe that it's right to

put the interests of British people

first we believe brexit needs to be

implemented properly and we are going to

be the voice of opposition and I tell

you what I've done it before I'll do it

again I'll surprise everybody thank you

[Applause]

okay

right well as is customary with

everything Richard and I do you can all

ask as many questions as you want name

and Company I do know but name and

Company

first Christopher hope GB news Mr farage

you tried before you haven't won several

times you admitted that why can you win

this time without the data you don't

know where you live in CL way your

sports in

and the second question is what's your

ultimate goal A Five-Year Plan to

replace the Tory party as the main

opposition party in this country if if

La win point one I made the point to you

Chris earlier I only stood once in

Earnest all the previous times where as

a pressure group to raise the profile of

why we believe leaving the EU made sense

when nobody else in Parliament was

saying it I did stand that one time I

did lose I mean I don't mind losing when

they

cheat so much so that one of the party

agents gets a nemon prison sentence you

can perhaps understand uh why I'm not

that friendly with the Tory party all

this are you going to do a deal with the

Tory party I mean not on your Nelly is

the answer to

that look it's very

difficult in the space of a few weeks

from scratch for me of all people given

what they're going to throw at me to win

a parliamentary cons but I repeat the

point I made you know I can't turn my

back on the People's Army I can't turn

my back on those millions of of people

who followed me believed in me despite

the horrendous things that were being

said about me in 2012 13 14 15 16 you

they're still there they're still there

and they want someone to believe in but

you can add to that a younger cohort I

said earlier Richard said the same

something is going on isn't it amazing

we haven't spent a bean on Facebook

pushes are advertising and yet of the

top 50 most like posts on Facebook in

the first week of the campaign 32 a

reform even the today

program what a shame Nick Robinson's not

here it really is but even the today

program doing a feature on Tik Tok this

morning saying just how many young

people are saying vote reform we're not

putting money into it I this is

happening organically something

remarkable is going on the one

prediction I'll make uh Chris is we will

get many many more votes than the 4

million that you Kip got in 2015

many many more votes we will win seats I

don't know how many The crucial part of

this campaign we'll be getting those

those people who were saying now they'll

vote labor but I suspect in many cases

that's through disgust to vote for

something they really believe in and the

plan look this you know we're a very new

party notice we're not making any bones

about it it's damn difficult but just to

because something it's difficult doesn't

stop you you're doing it the real plan

be the opposition in the next Parliament

and the biggest party at the 2029

general election that is the ambition

simple

as Andy 5 News nigela farage haven't you

made K starma the happiest guy in

British politics right now because you

just ensure that a whole lot of

conservative seats that might have stay

conservative will not conservative next

time around exactly the same question I

was asked 2015 exactly the same question

oh you'll damage the tor's hopes and we

took more

V from the conservatives and you were

all wrong all of you were wrong in 2015

no is the answer those people currently

saying they'll vote reform won't vote

conservative they've gone the red

wallers feel completely betrayed the

promises that Boris Johnson made and

frankly I'm not sure now he believed in

himself they've gone they're

what we'll do from here be quite

interesting actually I think we'll draw

fairly evenly from now on from

conservative and the labor party you

watch the polls in I said time Andy

asked me the same question I think

you'll see we're going to start drawing

from labor equally as much as the

conservatives the conser we've I've got

to reiterate this the conservative party

have lost this election without my

intervention it's done trust is broken

trust is gone and maybe that's why

there's so little coverage

of what's going on on the election

because kind of people know the result

we you know we I've thrown myself into

this today uh not just to ENT sort of

entertain everybody but because I

genuinely think that something

remarkable can happen at least that's

what I'll try

for BBC News Margaret Thatcher famously

said she wasn't for turning you are

obviously for turning why the massive

U-turn all of a sudden have you never

changed your mind about anything

well I said any what if never changed

your mind you are a

remarkable your book um I'd love to

follow it no I mean look you know this

is the old thing about hearts and heads

isn't it you know I I I rationally

thought this was too difficult I've

changed my mind because I can't let down

millions of people who would feel let

down by me unless I was at the front and

over the course of the next five and a

half years that is why I've changed my

mind I can't let those people down I

won't let those people down the amount

of guilt I felt yesterday simply

thinking about it was too much but I

also know I also know just as throughout

Europe there is a new

phenomenon racing through politics ahead

of these European elections this

weekend I promise

you something is happening out there

I've been in this game 30 years I fought

lots of Elections I've generally got got

a pretty good sense of timing something

is happening out there so yes I changed

my mind and you know what I'm not

ashamed of it one little bit we got

another one in the front row

here shab Khan from ITV News you

mentioned that you're going to be

contesting across the country that the

system is designed in a way which it

means it will be quite difficult for you

to win a number of seats what would be

viewed as a success here now that you're

running how many MPS do you need to win

to say this election has gone well I

agree with with you electoral reform is

vital it's absolutely ridiculous that we

have no proportionality in our system

whatsoever looked at this way back in

the 90s AV plus was The Proposal where

you'd vote for an MP but have a second

vote to get representation in Parliament

for big views um all I can tell you is

this if we get a massive massive vote

and a relatively small number of seats

then the call for reform will be there

and I want to reform the electoral

system I the Corruption of the House of

Lords where you know you give enough

money you get a seat in the House of

Lords you know we are a radical party we

don't think the current political

structure works for our country anymore

success well success on the one hand for

me will be standing up and fighting for

what I believe in rather than running

away from it rather than answering the

previous question we're going to get a

huge number of votes I think Chance get

more votes than the conservative party I

genuinely do and you can all hold me to

that in a few weeks time but I genuinely

believe we can get more votes in this

election than the conservative party

they are on the verge of total collapse

and it couldn't happen frankly to nicer

people but but well I I say that because

in 2019 you know I got this is M we

formed the brexit party within six weeks

Richard and I got rid of Mrs may we then

stood aside for Boris I mean I didn't

even get to thank you so I don't think

they're terribly nice people and I I and

I genuinely mean that we will win seats

in Parliament how many I don't know all

depends how much momentum we can build

over the course of the next few weeks

thank you very much indeed one more on

the end I will get to all of you I

promise I promise from PA H the fact

that you're making this announcement

here and not in clacton does that stand

as proof that you care more about the

London media than you do about your

future constituents are you coming to

clacton at 12:00

tomorrow answer the question are you

coming to clacton at 12:00 tomorrow is

the boss gone I tell you what I'm going

to be in Clon at 12:00 tomorrow why do

it here in London cuz this is where you

all are and you hate leaving your little

bubble don't you no I don't mean that I

will be you're very welcome to come to

clacton Tomorrow there's a very good

weather spoons there now let's keep

going um lady

there hi Natasha Clark um when did you

decide to make this decision 2 o00

yesterday afternoon whose decision was

it yours or Richard Tyson

well

ultimately it was my decision to say I'm

going to put myself forward and say to

Richard are you happy with this and he's

more than happy with this in fact I

think he's delighted with it actually so

we've talked on and off about this of

course for months and I've been very

reluctant to do this very reluct I mean

to be honest I've been reluctant because

I've actually rather enjoyed life at GB

news and it's been a great job best job

I've ever had I did enjoy your mob as

well when I was there but but but then

again you know I got sacked but that I'm

used to that um it happens quite

regularly um no I I've love being at GB

news and doing a show four nights a week

and and doing extra stuff and traveling

around the country and all of those

things um so giving that up is not an

easy thing your your plan to do this

today to come here today to stand and to

swap jobs with richual ties That was

your idea or his

idea that you guys had that you decided

to do it

together do you think I mean do you

think he's been bullied and strong armed

or something I mean what are you

suggesting no it's a very silly question

never mind um let's go

on thank you uh Kate mccan at times

radio um can I ask you if there was a

particular moment you mentioned meeting

people and people saying they felt that

down was the one interaction that really

made this for you and did you discuss it

with Donald Trump did you seek his

advice at all and just finally I believe

you have a candidate already in clacton

so what's going to happen to him thank

you well yeah you're right there is a

candidate in in clacton and you know

that's that's he knew for many many

months that this was a possibility for

many many months this was a possib not a

probability but a possibility did I

discuss it I I think I think the

Donald's got other things to be dealing

with just at this moment in time he's

been I with you he's been rather busy um

including joining Tik Tok and suddenly

racing up to

ridiculous I think it was particularly

in skag Ness actually particularly in

skag Ness a con and

see in 2013 ukit won 16 County

councilors on Lincoln District on lincol

District Council I mentioned earlier the

seat that Richard standing in where we

you know got 15,000 votes from a

candidate who was going to be young so

it's one of those places that I've

campaigned a lot over the years I was

just there was one particular

interaction in the street with the bloke

and I just sort of he sort of shrugged

his shoulders and said well okay mate

you know I sort of you know I'm not

going to give you a hard time or slag

you off but I just felt and then the

next day I was the next morning I was in

in Asheville with Lee Anderson and get

him the same thing and then I you know

got home late Saturday night and had

time to think about it and then Sunday

morning I just thought I'm just not

feeling good about this I'm letting

people down better to fight something

that is very very difficult you know

where where the outcome is far from

certain better to do that than let

people down

and I wanted the UK to be an independent

country to be a self-governing country

and you know I was pretty alone on that

for many many years and we did achieve

it and I'm very proud of the fact that I

spent all that time doing it but I just

think the way we're being governed I

think is disconnected from ordinary folk

I just I just think we're failing and I

I genuinely believe that the choice

between these two men is very very

narrow the narrowest has ever been at

any British general election I think in

modern times

sir good afternoon Nigel Nick Elby talk

um did Donald Trump's conviction help

you change your mind and how are you

going to use brexit to improve Britain's

financial situation okay Donald Trump's

conviction made no difference to me at

all and the whole thing was a caught

from start to finish utterly ludicrous

one looks at what Clinton and various

other presidents have done I mean the

fact that he even came to trial I think

it's a travesty I've now no doubt he'll

win the presidential election uh but

America becomes ever more divided um and

and and the whole thing becomes ever

more worrying um look you know I've made

my mind up I'm going to do what I'm

going to do all right I'm going to do

what I'm going to do um and and I

believe I'm right in doing it and if I

win I win if I don't I don't but many

other reform candidates are going to

win we are self-governing I I mean the

economics of this the least of the

problems you know we've gone from

Seventh to fourth in terms of global

exporters we're doing far better

economically as I mentioned earlier uh

that our former colleagues Partners in

the European Union um there are many

other things on the cost of living that

we'll talk about over the next couple of

weeks in particular why we're paying the

most ridiculous energy bills and have

been for the last 20 years green

subsidies not being self-sufficient in

energy all of that will come uh lady

there thank you Jerry Scott from the

times um J you uh spoke about kicking

things up into the eighth gear what are

we going to see differently now to what

has already come and do you hope your

return is going to bring in more

donations you made a point that should

have put a lot of his own money in how

do you hope to kind of Remedy that

situation yeah the donation thing last

week did start to turn actually did

start to turn we started to get some

serious money coming into the party last

week again it's all a bit last minute um

eighth gear uh which Richard talked

about I just think we're just going to

do more of what we've been doing with an

even higher level of energy higher level

of optimism and you know what the money

is going to come we will have enough

money we're not we're not going to have

30 million but as the Facebook example I

gave earlier proves actually we're doing

very very well on a limited budget it's

amazing what a well- aimed Stone from a

sling can do uh lady

there I I'm coming don't worry I won't

forget over here no I won't Sophie

huskerson from the mirror so you've

announced your standing for MP to become

MP for Clapton yes this is despite you

previously having said and I quote do I

want to spend every Friday for the next

five years years in CLA that's right

what's changed your mind on CL that's

right you're absolutely right it's a

massive you're absolutely right it's a

huge commitment it is a huge commitment

I I I said earlier in answer to the

question there from LBC I said earlier

that actually working at GB news is the

best job I've ever had I haven't had to

travel up and down the country I haven't

I was 21 years an me you know I know

what it's like to travel around

constitues to meet people it's a huge

effort and part of that weighing up

Factor was Absolut the question you

asked am I prepared to give the time not

just to politics but to a constituency

as well and the demands of a

parliamentary constituency are greater

even though they're smaller than the

demands of an MEP constituency

necessarily you know surgeries meeting

people all of those things you are

absolutely right I'm making a massive

potential Commitment if I win that seat

to this and to those people thank you

for the question um gentlemen there

thanks Ben Quinn from the guardian um Mr

farage is this the moment at which the

actual candidate in clacton is finding

out that he is no longer the candidate

and and also um what does it say about

about the way you view democracy that

these types of back room Changers of

leadership can happen sorry I I almost

nodded off then I I really do apologize

um he knew six months ago that it was a

possibility all right he knew it was a a

possibility and is my standing in

clacton going to help 600 other

candidates I think it may well do all

right and sometimes tough things have to

be done you know not an easy G right

we're going to go over here we're

getting a bit bored with the right wing

um let's go over

here Mr Farish Harry foret from Channel

4 News you say this has been in the

works for some months until a couple of

days ago you were definitively ruling it

out you're accusing the Tories of lying

of people not believing a word they have

to say why should people from this point

believe a word you have to say hang on I

said I've been planning for months to do

it I've said already I'd plann to run I

I know I was actually going to launch in

this

room I didn't do it because short-term

uh campaign that was called I thought I

could serve the cause better going

around the country as I've done for the

last week with a fair degree of energy

all right I've just realized it doesn't

work the formula doesn't work people

don't buy it they want me in the front

line they want me to take the Flack and

that's back doing it I haven't been

dishonest with anybody I have changed my

mind I've not been dishonest with

anybody least of all

myself uh Jane Merrick from the I

newspaper you said that you would get

more than 4.5 million votes that you did

in 2015 will you resign if you don't get

that Target and then secondly are you

still planning to help your friend

Donald Trump with the his Republican

campaign if I don't get that result I'll

go down the pub and have a think about

it all right um and be very disappointed

um no look I I I I haven't changed my

mind conviction or not I haven't changed

my mind that the world would be a safer

place with Donald Trump in the white

house I think the weakness that we've

seen under Joe Biden has encouraged uh

you

know uh president shei Etc the world

will be a safer place with Donald Trump

clearly if I'm elected the MP for

clacton and I'm there every Friday as

the mirror pointed out to me very

helpfully um it'll become more difficult

but not but not impossible all right

okay yes sky at the back

there thanks very much um Rich Ty

mentioned just now that the polls aren't

moving I guess that also reflects your

performance so far is this decision in

part a reflection of the fact that you

don't think the campaign has got off to

the start that you were hoping and do

you think that you're bigger than this

party um I would say this to you the

conservative party's first week above

all has been to crush the reform vote

we're bringing back national service and

nonsense like that which isn't actually

true anyway um it hasn't worked we've

gone up on the week not down on the week

the point Richard made was with three

points up with most posters on last week

than we were before so actually given

the onslaught we think we're in a pretty

good shape all right we think we're in

pretty good shape uh what we now have to

do is to get the big pushup none of you

believe it's possible just you watch I

think what we've done today would inject

some energy and some optimism into the

campaign we'll rep prioritize what we're

all do bullish about this I really

really am I'm pretty bullish about this

okay let's keep going few more I know

time is running on uh hi Nigel uh

Christian from The Daily Express um

you've spoken very passionately this

afternoon about everything wrong with

Britain and the current party system but

would you outline for our readers what

reform's optimistic positive view of

where Britain needs to go is and can you

confirm whether you'll be representing

reform at BBC's seven way debate on

Friday do you know Richard and I

mentioned this on in the car on the way

here there are number of debates we

haven't had time to work it all out yet

all right but we will between us between

us we will cover all of it I have to say

Seven's an awful lot isn't it but hey

there we are I'm sure P are a very

important party and we should all see

them in our houses in in GL or where or

wherever it is um so I haven't worked

all of that out all right we we've got a

lot more to work out over the course of

the next couple of days I did not come

footy to this decision until 2:00

yesterday afternoon having taken a

previous Tac uh the week before and

that's where we are okay I've got to do

a few more yeah

one because people are getting bored

thank you very much Jack Elson from the

Sun yeah many people will be surprised

by this announcement because for the

past week you and Richard TI have been

saying that he's the leader and you're

just helping out so um what is it can

you just spell out that you have you

don't think he has and secondly if

Donald Trump was British do you think

he'd be in reform UK well he was in

reform USA wasn't he you know when Ross

perau set up reform USA Trump was

briefly a part of it but of course

remember it was reformed Canada that

completely transformed the landscape in

Canadian politics and one of the reasons

that I chose the name reform having been

the brexit party before I was thinking

about that president in case the Tory

party led us all down which indeed they

have look you know I've been doing this

longer than Richard I have as I've said

already two or three times today there's

a People's Army out there that I built

up over many many years and they're

still there and they're very fond of

Richard but they know me a little bit

better it's just as simple as that

sir thanks very much um amelo from

Politico trying to do some kind of deal

with you at all and if so can you give

us any details and secondly are you

bidding to be prime minister in 2029

there has been no attempt at seduction

at all at least not that I've noticed um

so I I I don't think that's happened at

all um I'm I'm aiming for this political

party to become the voice of opposition

in the next Parliament I'm sure we're

going to achieve that because the

conservatives are incapable of doing

that and in 2029 do you know what by

then somebody younger and better May

well have come a lot but but if I can

help get it moving help keep it moving

I'll be delighted that for me politics

has never been about rank title and

position for me politics has always been

about changing things about changing

narratives about changing

outcomes you well yeah look if if we if

if we get to that point in 29 and I'm

still standing up who knows um chap at

the

back I it's Joe ma from Bloomberg if

reform does well at this election and

the final result is narrower than the

polls suggest and you found yourself in

a position to influence the composition

of the next government would you help

the Tores back into power or would you

rather K St became prime minister oh

goodness me I mean I haven't got time

for all this it's all too complicated

look let's just fight the campaign for

the next four weeks shall we you know I

would you know if we were in a position

to influence anything like that as

indeed B Dems found themselves with with

with with u CLE uh back in in 2010 well

you know I think our objectives would be

pretty simple wouldn't they you know no

betrayal of brexit and proper control of

our borders and whichever one offered

the best would be the best at the moment

I can't see either so

hello uh Tom scotson from politics home

is this the moment Now You're Expecting

or would you accept more conservative

candidates to come into the fold for

reform UK and hopefully uh campaign for

your party and is that something that

You' been thinking of I think in a

week's time in a week's time the polls

will look very different as I say you'll

begin to see that a conservative vote is

a wasted vote in the red wall I think

much may change right I've done my best

thank you everybody we'll see you on the

campaign Trail
