Nigel Farage’s Reform Party is having an absolute shocker. Despite only having five MPs, the party is already tearing itself apart.
This week, Rupert Lowe was suspended after openly criticising Farage’s leadership. The party accused him of workplace bullying and even referred him to the police over alleged threats against party chairman Zia Yusuf.
Lowe, who represents Great Yarmouth, denies the claims, insisting there’s “no credible evidence” against him. However, his suspension has only added to the party’s ongoing turmoil.
Reform’s Civil War Continues
This isn’t the first sign of trouble for Reform. Earlier this year, several councillors walked away, accusing Farage of undemocratic leadership.
Now, Lowe’s dramatic exit has left Reform with just four MPs—and the Green Party’s Adrian Ramsay wasn’t about to let that slide.

With Reform’s numbers dwindling, Ramsay, the MP for Waveney Valley, couldn’t resist a tongue-in-cheek offer to Farage.
Posting on X (formerly Twitter), he wrote:
“Hi Nigel Farage. I see you are having a spot of local difficulty. Now we have the same number of MPs, if you are looking for some advice on building an effective and happy team, let me know. My first tip is empower your colleagues, and don’t keep all the power yourself.”
Ouch. That one’s going to sting.
