all of tomorrow's front pages and give their expert opinions on tonight's topics. get ready britain. here we go. five years on, is it brexit britain or brexit? betrayal next. >> alex thank you very much. the top stories reform uk leader nigel farage told a party conference this evening that constitutionally brexit has been a success but took aim at the tory party for the scale of illegal immigration into the uk. mr farage said voters were betrayed by a conservative government elected on the back of brexit. former prime minister bofis of brexit. former prime minister boris johnson earlier told gb news we need the british ruling class finally to match the bravery and imagination of the 17.4 million people who voted to

leave. for supporters, the uk became a sovereign nation in charge of its own destiny. opponents believe it's isolated the country and damaged the economy. mr farage also said this evening getting back our sovereignty was, of course, the right thing to do, but we need a government who will keep their promises to the british people and which truly believes in brexit. and earlier today, conservative leader kemi badenoch said she's remaining positive. >> five years ago we had what was the greatest vote of confidence in our country and as brexit secretary, i removed lots of eu regulations. i ended the supremacy of the european court of justice, but there is still a lot more to do, like a trade deal with the us. that's a brexit opportunity that we need to take. we started those negotiations when president trump was last in power. he is back again. the biden administration didn't want it, i think. keir starmer needs to look at that. look at where the opportunities are. that's where the growth is going to be. >> liberal democrat leader sir ed davey criticised the

conservative brexit deal as an utter disaster for our country. >> it's going to lead the debate in britain to have a closer relationship with our european colleagues. it's great for our trade, our economy, it's good for our defence and our security and a customs union, which i've called for the liberal democrats are championing would be great for growth, far better than anything the government has announced to date. we need to get rid of those trade barriers that the conservatives put up that the conservatives put up that have so hit our small and medium sized businesses, our exporters. that's the way to grow our economy by having that closer relationship with europe. and the white house, says the recovery operation for the air collision in washington, dc, has now resumed in the potomac river, in which a passenger plane collided with a us army helicopter yesterday, killing 67 people. 41 bodies have now been found and in an update from the washington, dc, fire and emergency medical services chief this evening, 28 of those victims have been identified. audio has emerged showing

communication between the military helicopter and air traffic control before the deadly crash. in the clip, the helicopter has told of the proximity of the plane twice and acknowledges it, but it's not clear if the helicopter is responding to the wrong aircraft. posting on his truth social platform, us president donald trump said the blackhawk helicopter was flying too high by a lot. and those are the latest gb news headlines. for now. it's back to alex. >> for the very latest gb news direct to your smartphone, sign up to news alerts by scanning the qr code or go to gbnews.com/alerts. >> welcome back to patrick christys tonight with me, alex armstrong reform. ukip leader nigel farage has been addressing his party members in essex tonight on the fifth anniversary of brexit. there for us, of course, is our political correspondent, katherine

forster. catherine, what have you got with us? >> yes. good evening. from near saffron walden, nigel farage having a huge amount of fun here. it's kemi badenoch constituency. but they got into a row, didn't they, at christmas over the party membership numbers for reform, which she said were fake. not only were they not fake, reform have now got 190,000 members as against the conservatives, about 130,000. so nigel farage here, hundreds of reform members and they are on a roll. he's saying everybody laughed about me saying that brexit couldn't be done. they're not laughing now. also saying that the same appues also saying that the same applies about reform. sure, they've only got five mps at the moment, but it sounds if you believe what they say, like the sky is the limit. now i'm just going to grab one of them. he's

being mobbed, but he knows he's going to talk to us. i'm just going to talk to us. i'm just going to talk to us. i'm just going to grab him. so this is rupert lowe. he is the reform mp. as you can see. lots of requests for selfies. he is the reform mp for great yarmouth. let's just have a quick word with him. excuse me guys, we're live on gb news. and thank you very much for talking to us tonight. rupert and nigel farage says that reform is about family, community and country. how would you sum reform up? >> well. >> well. >> look, reform is the last chance britain's got of getting some sensible government and the tories and labour, as i call them, the uniparty, the reds and them, the uniparty, the reds and the blues. they've let us all down very badly. so it doesn't matter whether it's started really, after maggie thatcher, john major, i discount as a sort of an irrelevance, really. he should never have won his election. but tony blair did a

lot of damage to britain with derry , irvine, campbell, derry, irvine, campbell, mandelson and brown. so they they embedded all sorts of horrific laws like the human rights act and, you know, the equalities act, they started immigration. they weren't responsible for all of it. they started the legal apparatus for it. and then the tories. well, next the coalition. david cameron's got a lot of blood on his hands. and ultimately the electorate who government should be representing the taxpayers, the people who fund the country, the people who fund the country, the people who work hard, who pay the people who work hard, who pay their taxes. very often the businesses collect all the taxes for the government, so they are not doing their job. and that's why reform is doing so well, because people want representation in parliament. they want a government that looks after their interests, not the interests of people who come here either legally or illegally, who've never paid

into the economy, never contributed to our wealth. thank you. ultimately, you know, we need change and we're going to engineer it. >> thank you. thank you very much for talking to us. short of time. i'm afraid we need change. reform say they are going to engineer it. they feel like they are on a roll. of course, they've only got five mps at the moment, four years till the next election. but at the moment they seem to have all the momentum. back to you in the studio. >> thank you very much, catherine. that's great stuff. rupert lowe a bit of a rising star. hey. well, here's what reform uk leader nigel farage had to say a few moments ago as well. >> and here we are this week with seven opinion polls showing that we now are consistently three points ahead of the conservative party and just a point or two behind the labour party. and we are achieving something. we are achieving

something. we are achieving something that is quite remarkable. and we've been riding a bit of a wave. and you know what? if we keep riding that wave a bit more, we really will surprise everybody come that next general election when we win it. >> wow. is nigel farage sending the conservative party into a full blown meltdown? reform uk, with just five mps, held a massive rally today in kemi badenoch own constituency, north west essex. and they're not just talking about overthrowing the tories, they're coming for badenoch seat. that's right. reform is targeting the heart on the head even of the tory party, andifs the head even of the tory party, and it's no surprise they're surging in the po
