Bardella stated that if the National Rally comes to power in France, the country will cease to be a gateway to Britain. According to available information, the plan is also to account for migrants intercepted in the strait being returned to France. idnes.cz ↗
The conference was also accompanied by new suspicions regarding the financing of Reform UK. The party faces accusations that its representatives attempted to circumvent British rules for political donations from abroad. The case emerged after the release of recordings by activists operating under cover identities and according to multiple reports led to the departure of party officials who were reported to police. novinky.cz ↗
Farage attempted during the conference to confirm his leadership of the party while also presenting the priorities of a potential Reform UK government. Among them he mentioned interventions in the functioning of the House of Lords and the judiciary, should they in his view hinder the fulfilment of party promises. The developments thus link Reform UK's efforts to strengthen international partnerships with pressure caused by the party's financing. RTE News ↗
