Election Special

Author: Ken Ferguson May 9, 2026 Duration: 30:26

On 7th May the public went to the polls and voted for Reform UK in huge numbers changing the political landscape in the UK forever as the Labour and conservative parties were eviscerated.

In this podcast we discuss the fall out.


Hosted by Ken Ferguson, the Reform Party Podcast engages directly with the conversations defining contemporary Britain. This isn't about rehearsed soundbites from the Westminster bubble; it's a platform built for substantive dialogue that often exists outside mainstream channels. Each episode digs into the mechanics of governance and public policy, questioning long-held assumptions about how the country is run. The discussions frequently connect high-level political shifts with the grassroots movements and local concerns that are actively shaping the national mood. You'll hear analysis on topics ranging from constitutional reform and economic strategy to the evolving questions of national identity and community. The aim is to challenge the status quo by airing diverse, thought-provoking perspectives that aren't always amplified elsewhere. By fostering this kind of open exploration, the podcast creates a space where listeners can encounter the ideas and debates central to the reform movement in real time. Tune in for a candid, detailed look at the forces and figures proposing a different path forward for the nation.
