Makerfield: Has Reform UK's Bubble Burst? | Jeremy Vine

Reform UK has suffered what some commentators are calling its worst night since the 2024 General Election. Labour gained ground in Makerfield, Andy Burnham secured a decisive victory over Reform, the Conservatives won Aberdeen South, and Nigel Farage's party faced growing competition from the newly formed Restore Britain. So has Reform UK's bubble burst, or is this simply a temporary setback? In this debate, we examine whether Reform UK has peaked, whether Nigel Farage can regain momentum, what the Makerfield by-election result means for British politics, and whether Restore Britain is beginning to split the right-wing vote. We also discuss what these results could mean for Labour, the Conservatives and the next General Election. #ReformUK #NigelFarage #UKPolitics
