Review Challenges Fairness of Reform UK's Harassment Investigation Into Rupert Lowe

An independent review commissioned by Lowe questions the impartiality and professionalism of the party's investigation, deepening divisions within Reform UK.

• An independent review led by Gemma White KC criticized Reform UK's investigation into Rupert Lowe, citing a lack of impartiality and procedural fairness.
• The review raised concerns about the investigator's qualifications, the absence of terms of reference, and inappropriate practices such as producing witness statements for complainants.
• Reform UK's investigation had previously found credible evidence of harassment by Lowe and his team, leading to his suspension and police involvement.
• Lowe denies all allegations, accusing Nigel Farage of orchestrating a politically motivated smear campaign following his criticism of Farage's leadership style.
• Reform UK maintains that there is 'no way back' for Lowe into the party, with Farage defending the party's actions amidst ongoing internal divisions.
