Nigel Farage to relaunch Brexit Party as an anti-lockdown party and will rebrand it 'Reform UK' to take on government's 'woeful' Covid response, 'bloated quangoes' and House of Lords
is seeking to relaunch his political career by rebranding the Party as an anti-lockdown party.
The party has formally applied to the Electoral Commission to change its name to Reform UK and will campaign against measures.
Announcing the party's new aims, Mr Farage - who has led UKIP several times - and Richard Tice, the Brexit Party chairman, said it will tackle several 'powerful vested interests'.
These include 'the House of Lords, the , the way we vote, law and order, immigration'. The pair also claim 'badly run, wasteful quangos are in abundance'.
But the party - which hopes to capitalise on anti-lockdown sentiment - believes the most pertinent issue is 'the Government's woeful response to coronavirus'.
