  17. Reform coming for Labour, Farage promises

    We're hearing from Nigel Farage now, who's just won in Clacton. He tells supporters he'll do his best to "bring tourists" and "private investment" to the area.

    He also commends his party Reform UK's performance at this election, saying it's on course to come second in a slew of seats - behind Labour and ahead of the Tories.

    My plan, he says, is to build up Reform and "come for Labour" at the next election.
