Trust, strength, clarity of purpose: Reform UK leads Tories on key indicators - Sky News poll
Monday, 17 February 2025 Tories trail Reform UK on a range of key indicators according to an exclusive new YouGov poll for Sky News that reveals Nigel Farage's party now has the potential to reach as much of the electorate as the party run by Kemi Badenoch.
Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has accused the Labour government of "reopening Brexit battles" and taking the UK backwards with its new EU deal. Badenoch criticised months of "secret negotiations" and claimed the agreement surrenders key Brexit gains, including sovereignty, money and legal control. Report by Covellm.

Tory leader Kemi Badenoch has slammed the government’s new EU deal as a “sellout”, claiming it gives away UK fishing rights for over a decade. She said coastal communities had been betrayed and described the agreement as a “surrender deal”, accusing Prime Minister Keir Starmer of reversing the Brexit referendum “in all but name”.

Keir Starmer’s government is facing strong criticism after agreeing to a deal that allows EU fishing vessels continued access to UK waters for 12 more years. Scottish fishermen and politicians have slammed the agreement as a betrayal, calling it a “horror show” that endangers local communities and the fishing industry. The Scottish Government and opposition parties accuse UK ministers of ignoring devolved consent and sacrificing fishermen’s interests for political gain. Critics warn the deal risks harming coastal economies and undermines post-Brexit sovereignty.

Britain and the EU have announced a sweeping reset in their post-Brexit relationship, covering trade, defence, and mobility. The deal allows UK participation in a €150B EU defence program, cuts red tape on food exports, simplifies travel, and opens joint military procurement to firms like BAE and Rolls-Royce. Prime Minister Keir Starmer calls the agreement a step toward stability and prosperity, projecting a £9B boost to the UK economy by 2040. While critics like Nigel Farage slam it as a betrayal, the reset signals a pivot to practical cooperation over political division.

Nigel Farage says Reform UK "very much enjoyed" Sir Keir Starmer's remarks on immigration and an 'island of migrants', which critics have likened to Enoch Powell's 'Rivers of Blood' speech in 1968. Reform's party leader urges the prime minister to declare the situation in the English Channel as a national security emergency. Starmer replies that the government's borders bill will allow law enforcement to take action "before crimes are committed", adding it is "extraordinary" that Farage "of all people, voted against it".
