On March 29, reform UK insiders are getting fed up with the party's links to wild online figures like Andrew Tate and Tommy Robinson. As they gear up for bigger wins, they're pushing to cut ties with these controversial types whose extreme views could scare off everyday voters. Nigel? Farage needs. Earlier this year, Farage called Tate an important voice for young guys feeling sidelined. But now that's backfiring. Farage faces 21 charges, including human trafficking, if he returns to the UK, and shows like Louis Theroux's Netflix doc are making him toxic too. Mainstream crowds. Poles for more in common show the damage clear. Hardcore reform voters from last year's rate, Robinson plus 15, but new supporters drop him to minus 11 and women to minus 15. Tate fares worse at minus 34 overall, sinking to minus 51 with women. Meanwhile, other flashy backers like Lady Victoria Herve, who's tied to Epstein files and dated royalty, keep popping up at events.
Hollywood lands calls Greta Thunberg names and praises Robinson, while model Caprice Beret campaigns hard for reform candidates. This online right-wing crowd risks alienating the swing female voters who could tip reform into power, so expect more distance as the party is. Brought her a peagle.
