The Reform honorary president, who has declined to stand as an MP, launched the party’s campaign at a yacht club on the Kent seafront.
Nigel Farage has said voting for the Conservative Party is a “wasted vote” as he set out Reform UK’s election campaign agenda in Dover.
The former Ukip leader said: “This election is a foregone conclusion. Labour are going to win and they’re going to win quite big.“And therefore you could argue, actually, that a vote for the Conservative Party is a wasted vote. He said: “I hope and believe we can get a cohort of MPs in Westminster so that we can be the voice of opposition.”
After his interview on Sky’s Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips, Mr Farage was accused of “incendiary rhetoric”.
