Reform UK accused of ‘nil vetting’ as another racist candidate exposed

Yet another Reform UK candidate has been exposed for their racist social media posts:

Brett Muscroft is Reform UK’s candidate in Castleford Central & Glasshoughton, Wakefield.

He shows clearly that Reform UK’s vetting is nil for this coming local elections.

His posts on Islam, his support of Tommy Robinson, Enoch Powell and posting far-right and racist content… pic.twitter.com/2kDm9P5DSI

At this point, Reform candidates are being exposed so regularly that you can use a Google alert for ‘Reform candidate exposed‘ as your alarm clock.

Reform UK in Wakefield

This is how Reform announced candidate Brett Muscroft:

The above is on Facebook, which is ironic, as it’s his Facebook account which caused his problems.

Reform Party UK Exposed highlighted the following posts from Muscroft:

Reform Exposed suggested that Reform just aren’t vetting their candidates, and you can see why they’d say this. The above posts are from Muscroft’s personal Facebook. Possibly he didn’t tell them about the account, but that shouldn’t matter, because the account comes up with a simple search:

At the time of writing, HIS ACCOUNT IS STILL PUBLIC.

So yes; we think it’s fair to suggest Reform aren’t vetting candidates.

That or they’re just completely incompetent.

Either way; is this who you want running your council?

Muscroft isn’t the only candidate being exposed either. As Reform Exposed reported:

Reform UK’s candidate Holly Drafahl standing in Hoxne & Eye, Suffolk thinks it’s ok to stir up resentment against ‘Turkish looking people’.

In a series of Facebook posts she described how she had seen someone flying a drone near a school, and that this could have been to potentially plan a terrorist attack on the school. The description of the person moved between ‘Turkish looking’ and ‘Turkish’ throughout her posts and replies. The person stated they were doing drone photography, and she herself admitted he wasn’t filming children at a school (there were none there). So she moved on to saying he could have been filming to plan a terrorist attack.

She even then created a vague petition to further hype the situation.

(She changed her name on FB to Holly Smith recently but you can see her name still connected in her petition).

Her true colours however were shown in the screenshot here where she liked the reply “Turkish, alarm bells. Muslim pedos, common sense to worry.”.

And now she’s standing to be councillor.

It keeps happening

Articles we’ve put out on Reform’s local election chaos include the following:

• Reform welcome candidate who thanked Putin.
• Reform candidate sparks mass resignations in the party.
• Day One Reform activist accuses party of ‘sewer’ politics in explosive resignation letter.
• Farage heckled at Reform’s Jimmy Saville-aping London launch.
• Video emerges of Reform’s ‘Nazi salute’ candidate drink driving.
• Reform’s chaotic collapse continues: Scottish candidate suspended over ‘financial conduct’.

Potential candidates have clearly clocked that it’s easy to get a Reform endorsement; so easy that you seemingly don’t even need to go private on Facebook.

That or they’re just too stupid to delete their Facebook accounts before signing up.
