and obviously rupert lowe has denied all this completely. he's now, as patrick said, just before we came on, released another statement saying that the reform are propitious and actually that basically lawyers saying they acted too soon and rashly and so he says that tells the whole story precipitous. what did i say? propitious? yes. >> whatever one of them's to do with rain. >> this wouldn't have happened with andrew doyle. but yeah, i just hope, yeah, they rain down on him too soon. that's what happened. it's it is shocking. i mean, if you were a reform supporter, if you voted for them. he has so many fans. yeah. rupert lowe. >> and he's really the heart of the party. >> yeah. to me, he was one of the few. he was one of the few, perhaps one of the very few mainstream politicians just telling it like it is telling the truth. and i mean, and he denies all these claims, we're in this kind of hr. culture now where you can't do anything like reform are presumably big fans of churchill. how long do you think churchill would last in the reform pa

i agree with rupert lowe.on't think we should be closing the door as a party to a possible alliance with the tories, if that's the only way of defeating keir starmer at the next election. so ihave starmer at the next election. so i have some sympathy with some positions at rupert lowe takes, but nigel farage is one of the most successful politicians of the post—war period, not just in britain but anywhere in europe. and to go to a newspaper and criticise him in a way that was done yesterday in the daily mail. it's not good and it's not the first time that he's been freelancing, and you can't behave like that in a party. >> well, look, i want to touch on this exact moment that this has been. obviously, it's happened quite spontaneously. some would say, however, that critique of . critique of. nigel farage was only yesterday, i believe. and so, i mean, come on, it's. the party's been waiting for this moment, hasn't it? >> well, look, i'm a new, new person in reform. i've only been involved in three months, but i

now, this is why we had to deal with with rupert lowe. it doesn't look great for reform. that's obviously true. however, i do think the reform party are right to say that the tory party are enjoying this a bit too much that lots of commentators who don't like reform are trying to sort of create a major split in the party. whereas if you talk to a lot of people in reform, i think there was an acknowledgement that ever since rupert lowe got retweeted by elon musk. >> yes. >> yes. >> then he went a little bit the ego. i mean, he says farage has got a messianic complex. i believe rupert lowe messianic complex might be quite significant. >> could be a battle of the egos. so yes, just to remind everyone, elon musk suggested that actually nigel farage didn't have what it takes to lead reform because he said he wouldn't welcome tommy robinson into the movement. elon musk, along with other us figures like jordan peterson, has tried to give tommy robinson a voice saying he's kind of the victim of overzealous police and judicial activity and making the point that he has spoken up fo
