‘Failed former Tory MPs’ who join Reform unlikely to be selected as candidates, Zia Yusuf says – UK politics live

This is from Ed Davey, the Lib Dem leader, on Nigel Farage's denial of the FT story. (See 9.33am.)

A handy reminder that in 2019 Farage did a deal to put Boris Johnson in No10 and push through his disastrous Brexit deal.

But instead of taking responsibility, of course Farage plays the victim.
