In this episode, I'm joined by Ben Habib for a conversation about Reform, Nigel Farage and where British politics is heading.
Ben argues that Reform is far more fragile than most people realise. That it lacks a clear political philosophy, is driven by personality rather than principle, and could fail badly if it ever reaches power. His fear isn't just that Reform collapses, it's that its failure would discredit the wider pro-British cause for a generation.
We discuss Farage's leadership, ambition, and record, the danger of movements built around individuals rather than ideas, and why simply breaking the two-party system isn't enough if what replaces it isn't serious, coherent, and capable of governing.
