Nigel Farage, Reform UK's leader, has said there is every chance of a general election in 2027 and declared he will run on a pledge to stop the boats within two weeks of entering No 10. The Sunday Times is reporting that Mahmood, conscious of Farage's popularity with voters, is likely to want to reform the European convention on human rights (ECHR), with a source telling the paper that the former justice secretary would start with the unthinkable and work backwards.
