Reform UK says it will pursue legal action after ITV’s undercover investigation exposed racist remarks by councillors and candidates, including comments about Black children and Asian families.
- On Wednesday, Reform UK reported ITV, several journalists, and the broadcaster's board of directors to the police following an undercover documentary that exposed racist remarks by party members.
- The undercover investigation captured Reform councillors and candidates using racist language, including describing black children as "animals" and an area as "infested" with Asian families.
- Reform home affairs spokesman Zia Yusuf alleged journalists breached fraud and election law, claiming an undercover reporter "doctored" her passport and reporters illegally paid canvassers in Portsmouth.
- Yusuf accused ITV of engaging in "a form of psychological warfare" to manipulate volunteers, adding that Reform will pursue "civil proceedings" against the journalists and the board.
- At Prime Minister's Questions, Andy Burnham urged all political parties to root out "poison in politics," stating Reform has failed to take sufficient action regarding the documentary's revelations.
