Reform beats Labour by six votes to take Runcorn

Nigel Farage’s Reform UK has secured victory by six votes over Labour in Runcorn and Helsby as Sir Keir Starmer failed his first by-election test as prime minister.

David Bull REPLACES Yusuf As A Chairman After Reform’s Burqa Bombshell | Farage’s Party In Turmoil?

Television presenter and ex-MEP David Bull has been named the new chairman of Reform UK, following Zia Yusuf's brief resignation and return amid a heated internal debate over burqa bans. Bull, a longtime ally of Nigel Farage and former deputy leader, brings media polish and party experience. Farage praised Yusuf for enduring the strain of professionalizing the party. As Reform eyes major political gains and pushes bold policies—including reindustrializing the UK and exploring crypto—Bull takes charge during one of the party's most chaotic weeks yet. #DavidBull #ReformUK #NigelFarage #UKPolitics #BurqaBan #PartyShakeup #ZiaYusuf #TalkTV #BritishPolitics #Farage #ReformParty #Trumpism #BurqaDebate #CryptoPolicy #PoliticalDrama #PartyCrisis #Election2025 #UKParliament #ReformNews #RightWingPolitics #BrexitLegacy #BullVsYusuf #LeadershipChange #GrassrootsPolitics #FarageMovement #NationalismUK #SteelIndustry #BritishSteel #PortTalbot #PolicyShift #UKNews ~ED.194~HT.336~GR.125~
