Nigel Farage to outline first 100 days of a Reform Government in Doncaster speech
The Reform UK has attacked PM Andy Burnham ahead of his visit to Doncaster
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage will use a key speech to supporters in Doncaster to outline the first 100 days of a Reform government - as he launched an attack on Prime Minister Andy Burnham ahead of his visit.
Mr Farage will visit Doncaster on Thursday 1 October, marking the first stop on Reform UK’s 100 Days to Save Britain tour.
He is expected to outline what the first 100 days of a Reform UK government would look like and build on the pledges made at the party's National Conference in Birmingham.
At the Conference, the party’s shadow cabinet committed to implementing four key policies in their first 100 days in government:
* Stopping the boats by deploying the Royal Navy to intercept every small boat in the English Channel.
* Cutting people’s taxes by raising the personal income tax allowance from £12,570 to £15,000.
* Slashing energy bills by an average of £250 a year and ending VAT on household energy.
* Making education work by cutting funding to “Mickey Mouse degrees” training more British doctors and giving nursing students interest-free loans.
Mr Farage said: “Andy Burnham said he needs 10 years to turn the country around.
“That’s simply not good enough. People in Doncaster and across the country need action now.
“That’s why my Shadow Cabinet has pledged radical changes in their first 100 days to fix our borders, cut energy bills, put more money in your pocket, and give young people the skills to rebuild this country.
“If they fail, I will sack them.
“This country is sick of Labour and Tory politicians who promise the world, deliver nothing, and still get rewarded. Reform will end that culture, restore trust in politics and fix broken Britain.”
Farage will address party members from Doncaster and beyond at 2pm.
A location has yet to be revealed for the £5 a head gathering but previous events in Doncaster featuring Mr Farage have been held at Doncaster Racecourse.
It is the latest in a long line of visits to Doncaster by the party leader who has set his sights on the party taking a clean sweep of the city’s Parliamentary seats at the next General Election.
