Can Reform UK break the mould of British politics and vie for power at the next election? In this week’s episode of Westminster Insider: Summer Interviews, Anne McElvoy talks to MP Richard Tice, deputy leader of Reform. 🎧 Listen now 👇 https://t.co/oZH5gQTXC7
During French President Emmanuel Macron's state visit to the United Kingdom, King Charles delivered a speech in Windsor asserting that there are 'no borders' between the UK and France, a statement interpreted as a call for closer cooperation amid ongoing challenges with illegal immigration across the English Channel. This remark has sparked debate within UK political circles. Richard Tice, deputy leader of Reform UK, described the King's reference to 'no borders' as 'unwise,' contrasting it with the language used by the late Queen, who avoided such topics. The discussion around the King's comments and Reform UK's political positioning was further explored in a recent interview on the 'Westminster Insider' program, where Tice also addressed the party's prospects in the upcoming UK general election. The issue of border control and migrant returns remains a contentious topic as Prime Minister Keir Starmer seeks to maintain a migrant returns agreement with France.
