TUV distances itself from migrant drowning remarks
Reform UK's Ben Habib had suggested some travelling in small boats should be left to drown.
Reform UK is a right-wing populist political party in the United Kingdom. It was founded by Catherine Blaiklock with support from Nigel Farage in November 2018 as the Brexit Party, advocating hard Euroscepticism and a no-deal Brexit. It was a significant political force at the 2019 European Parliament election, but failed to win any seats at the 2019 general election. After the UK's withdrawal from the European Union (EU) on 31 January 2020, it was renamed to Reform UK, and it became primarily an anti-lockdown party during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since 2022, the party has campaigned on a platform of broader right-wing populist issues, chiefly surrounding illegal migration and the government’s Net Zero energy policy.
