Nigel Farage has given his speech at Reform's first conference since winning five MPs at the general election, and Robert Jenrick says English identity is 'under threat'.


Kamal and Camilla review Nigel Farage's big speech at the Reform conference, their first since the election, with 4000 members at the NEC in Birmingham there to see him as he plots a course to become Prime Minister by 2029.

Plus, Robert Jenrick has been on manoeuvres and delivered a Farage-esque newspaper article bemoaning what he sees as the loss of 'English identity', and former prime minister of Canada Stephen Harper has been speaking about what the British right can learn from the Canadians...
