An ITV undercover investigation has revealed that Nigel Farage was told by a senior Reform official that he was "protecting" a high-profile mayoral candidate accused of making racist comments about Labour MP David Lammy.
The investigation captured footage showing the mayoral candidate made remarks telling Lammy to "go home to the Caribbean," according to the ITV report. A Reform official directly told Farage he was protecting the candidate despite these allegations.
The same undercover investigation documented complaints from Sarah Pochin, one of two female MPs for Reform. Pochin told undercover journalists that other party officials "are so fucking chauvinistic" and that "they just exclude you if you are a woman."
The findings emerge as Reform continues to expand its parliamentary presence ahead of upcoming elections.
