Reform’s women rally round Nigel Farage: ‘He was set up!’

Reform’s women rally round Nigel Farage: ‘He was set up!’

Author: The Telegraph September 6, 2026 Duration: 1:03:58

In today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley speak to some of Reform’s key women, live from a special event at day two of Reform’s party conference.

Nadine Dorries, the Reform UK member and ex-Conservative Secretary of State, defends the party after its latest donations scandal, and says that Nigel Farage is being made out to be “enemy number one” by his critics. She also argues that the Right of UK politics needs to reunite more than ever, now that the Left has an ever-growing “cosy consensus”.


Sarah Pochin, the Reform MP, says Channel 4’s investigation of Reform’s donations “looks like entrapment”, and speaks to Camilla and Tim about her campaign for the equality and safety of women and girls. Meanwhile, Laila Cunningham, Reform’s London Mayoral candidate, explains how she would tackle crime in the capital.
