Reform UK has said that a pact with Restore Britain is off - that is their decision.
I’m not getting into the personality differences of it all, I can’t be bothered.
We made our offer, a genuine attempt was made. It was based on policy. I didn’t particularly enjoy doing it, but I tried because I thought it was the right thing to do.
If Reform want to discuss policy, not personality, then they know where to find me.
My aim is now on continuing to present a laser-focused plan to the British people.
We’ve already done so on deportations, policing, energy, self-defence, economics and more.
Others are being worked on, and will be released over the coming weeks.
I am particularly proud of our economics paper which lays out a costed plan on how Britain can live within its means - vast cuts to first spending, then tax. Doing it slowly, carefully and properly.
It is a plan that will work.
This is what we must focus on.
Restore Britain stands on a radically different platform to any other party.
We must now prove that our plan can work.
