Nigel Farage has announced an emergency statement at 8am on Tuesday. Reform UK has not confirmed what the address is about but there could be several issues on the party leader's mind.
He could declaire some form of a two tier policing emergency after the family of murdered Henry Nowak demanded police explain "inhumane and degrading" treatment. The family of a teenage murder victim who was handcuffed by police as he was dying from stab wounds have demanded “a full, fearless and transparent investigation”.
Mr Farage has also come under fire for failing to declare a £5million gift he received from a billionaire backer before he became an MP. On Sunday, Reform sources claimed to a newspaper that their leader's phone may have been hacked by Russian spies to obtain details of a the funds he received from businessman Christopher Harborne.
It is also weeks before a crunch by-election in Makerfield where Reform is taking on Labour. Mr Farage could make an intervention relation to that too.
