Greenpeace said it claimed the stage banner as security removed two women and other protesters after the speech was pushed back about an hour.
- On Friday, Nigel Farage's keynote address at the Reform Party conference in Birmingham was delayed by a security alert, with attendees told sessions were suspended due to "unforeseen circumstances."
- Greenpeace and Climate Resistance disrupted the event with banners reading "Reform works for billionaires" and "Collect £5 million, burn the planet," while protesters shouted "Nigel, you're bankrolled by billionaires."
- Farage resumed his speech an hour later, laughing as protesters were removed; addressing the hall, he dismissed hecklers, saying "that poor young girl, she looked like she was going to do herself an injury," before adding "boring, boring, boring."

- While Richard Tice warned that 90% of homes in his constituency of Boston and Skegness face flood risks, Climate Resistance claimed Reform profits from oil and gas interests, urging politicians to quit expensive fossil fuels.
