MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The increasingly popular British right-wing party Reform UK, led by Eurosceptic Nigel Farage, already has almost as many members as the opposition Conservative Party, according to Reform UK data.
An unnamed representative of Reform UK media that the party expected to surpass the Conservatives in membership in January. The publication noted that due to the low membership fee, Farage’s party attracts many young people to its ranks.
Earlier, a survey by research company JL Partners showed that the approval rating of British Prime Minister Keir Starmer among his fellow citizens was lower than that of US entrepreneur Elon Musk, who had repeatedly publicly criticized the Labour leader. At the same time, the rating of Reform UK leader Farage was higher than that of Starmer or Musk.
