Reform UK’s general secretary quits after just over a year in the role

Nigel Farage has been dealt a fresh blow after Reform UK’s General Secretary unexpectedly quit just over a year into the role.

Tom Waterhouse, who has played a key role in the party in recent months, is stepping down with immediate effect.

A Reform UK Spokesman told The Mirror: “Tom Waterhouse has left his role with Reform UK. The party leader has now appointed an interim General Secretary.”

His departure represents another major headache for Farage, whose party has been embroiled in a series of scandals in recent months and has slipped in the polls.

Mr Waterhouse’s resignation follows a dodgy donations scandal that saw two top aides – long-standing aide Dan Jukes and policy chief James Orr – forced to step down in September.
