A recent investigation revealed that up to 12 newly elected Reform UK councillors have been accused of sharing social media content linked to far-right ideology and Islamophobia. This includes posts from Britain First, a known far-right group. The scrutiny follows the party's recent electoral success, with claims of robust internal vetting processes being called into question, as the councillors' backgrounds reveal troubling associations. Reform's reliance on an automated vetting tool has come under fire, especially after its leaders touted their procedures as the most comprehensive among political parties.
