Elliott Allman, a candidate for Coalville North, faced backlash for a racist Facebook post from 2013. After local Conservatives called for his suspension from Reform UK, the party defended him, claiming his views have matured. WhatsApp messages revealed troubling remarks from party members, prompting formal complaints from the Conservatives alleging widespread racism. Despite the controversy, Allman continues to campaign, while Reform UK faces scrutiny over member vetting for future elections, a point previously emphasized by leader Nigel Farage.
Mr Allman's comments were made over 12 years ago. We are confident that he and his views have matured and changed since.
I always have a black mate to pull out my back pocket.
Leicestershire Conservatives...submitted a formal complaint to Reform UK...to suspend the member involved while they carry out a full investigation into the apparent widespread racism.
Fail to see your point. What it shows is a fantastic maturing and development stage. I'm glad you've highlighted this to me. It reminds me of how far I've come.
