The British Right is Fracturing

Prime Minister Nigel Farage. That got your attention, didn't it? Especially if you're British.

For a sure while, it even looked like that might be going to happen. Through 2025 and early into 2026, Farage and his Reform UK party seemed on course for number 10. But over the last few months, that has started to change, hasn't it?

Part of it does indeed come down to Farage having just spent all summer campaigning against a man with a bin on his head. But even with Count Binface now vanquished, at least until next election, it's become increasingly clear that Reform's troubles are indeed mounting, not least because its right-wing rivals are doing better than predicted.
