The bitter reform in the UK involving Nigel Farage and one of its parliamentarians explained

The bitter reform in the UK involving Nigel Farage and one of its parliamentarians explained

The suspension of the reform, the UK parliamentarian, Rupert Lowe, following the tax charges was “correct and adequate,” said the deputy leader of the party.

Richard Tice said on Sunday that he was “unhappy and difficult” to suspend the great parliamentarian Yarmouth, after saying that he threatened the party president Zia Yusuf and reported about the intimidation of women from Lowe’s offices.

– But, of course, said Tice, “they must be treated properly and responsibly.” Lowe, who previously attacked the leadership of Nigel Farage’s party, denied requests.

Here, Yahoo News UK sets out what we know about the bitter row from the center of a party the second behind work in surveys.

Lowe is a businessman who, before this week’s reform, was the best known as former president of Southampton FC between 1999 and 2006.

He previously belonged to the Brexit Party of Farage – who subsequently evolved in the Reform reform in the UK – and became a MEP in 2019 following the European elections.

In the general elections in the UK that year, he had to be the candidate of the Brexit party for Dudley North, but he released 11 o’clock. He revealed his decision as the nominations closed, which means it was too late for the party to present an alternative.

She led to a first row with Farage, who accused him of “disgusting behavior” and said that his respect for Lowe “left complete”.

Apparently they developed in the years that intervened, with Lowe standing for reform in Kingswood secondary elections in February last year. He finished in third place, behind the candidates for work and conservative.

At the general elections, a few months later, Lowe stayed and won in Great Yarmouth, taking the place from the Conservatives. He announced he would donate his net parliamentary salary for charity organizations.

As a parliamentarian, Lowe said he wants to bring death penalty, restricting BBC and concluding speed limits of 20 km / h on roads.

In January, US billionaire Elon Musk seemed to support Lowe as a replacement for Farage, who said “he doesn’t need it” after falling with him.

Musk said, “I didn’t meet Rupert Lowe, but his online statements I have read so far have a lot.”

Thursday, the past wounds opened once again after Lowe gave a Daily Mail interview. When asked if Farage will make a good prime minister, he criticized his party leadership.

“It’s too early to know if Nigel will deliver the goods. He can only deliver if he is surrounded by the right people.

“Nigel is an independent independent individual and is extremely good at what I have done so far. It has messianic qualities. These messianic qualities will distill in the management of wisdom? I don’t know.”

He said that the reform should change from a “protest party led by the Messiah” to one structured with a front bench and that Farage had to “learn to delegate”.

Farage struck back, saying that, without personal pursuit, the party would not have won any of his five places in Parliament -and there was no “chance of the cat in hell” of Lowe to win it.

The situation climbed on Friday, with Lowe suspended reform one day after criticizing it.

The party said that he received evidence of “serious intimidation” and “derogatory” observations made about the women in the parliamentarian’s offices, with two separate employees, who said they made charges. He said that a King’s lawyer was named to look at the complaints.

Lowe was also accused of “doing at least two occasions threats of physical violence” for the president of the Zia Yusuf party, who said that the problem is “with the police”.

Scotland Yard on Thursday confirmed a complaint of “verbal threats” about an alleged incident from December last year and was evaluated by officers.

Lowe denied the claims, describing the assertion as “vexable” and said that the complaint to the police “obviously entered immediately after asking reasonable questions about the reform management.”

On Saturday, Lowe invited him to sit down and “take dinner” with him “and solve this in a way that will be expected and our country.”

Instead, they later traded other beards in the Telegraphs columns. “It is a witch hunting, simple to all to see,” Lowe said in his article.

Said Farage in his columnPublished two hours later, that the statements “went” the reform “the feeling of unity”.
