Britain Is Not Broken: How Farage and Reform UK Are Selling a Dangerous False Crisis

Britain is not broken – but Farage and Reform UK depend on you believing that it is. Their politics thrives on a story of national collapse driven by migration, multiculturalism and “lost control”. The data tell a different story: a diverse country under strain, but still held together by everyday coexistence and shared services. This editorial examines how Farage and Reform UK weaponise genuine grievances, how their rhetoric feeds real-world harm, and how donor links and pro-Russia bribery cases raise serious questions about foreign influence. The real task is to repair Britain – not to profit from breaking it.
