Thank you very, very much indeed. Applause. Nigel farage takes a bow there from his audience at the reform Uk Party conference as the banners come down, ending his speech which lasted about half an hour and he focused very much on not only how they won their first seats in theirfirst seats in parliament this year � s election and what going for a seat sceptical about that, but very much laying out how he wanted to change the Partys Structure and how he wanted to win more seats in the local elections next year and win wider support on the ground, and he said that they wanted to be credible. He said they wanted bigots didnt wantany said they wanted bigots didnt want any bigots in the party because they represent the silent majority. We have the silent majority. We have the summer riots, which were very controversial. There is no lack of ambition here, Nigel Farage coming off stage behind me to that Eminem Song that became a bit of a theme for him i suppose throughout the Election Campaign. Nigel Farage Talk to as well about winning even the next general election which would be quite extraordinary, but putting aside perhaps that sense of over ambition, spoke about the next local elections in may, and what this conference has been about and is about tomorrow as well is building Reform Uks rao � s campaign, across the country from which they can build for the general election in five years� time. That was very much the focus. What was interesting and one of the things Nigel Farage said was an acknowledgement that they struggled with, without being able to Vet Candidates in the last general election. There were a number of stories about reform Uk Candidates saying deeply inappropriate and at times racist things during the Election Campaign. Nigel farage admitted saying we were just at that stage we weren� t big enough, wealthy enough for professional enough. He claims they could have one more seats if they had been able to Vet Candidates and he went on to say that the party doesn� t have any room for bigots and that they would be kicked out. I thought it was perhaps one of the most interesting things, given of course that he at times during the Election Campaign defended some of the things certainly, that candidates and activists were caught saying. But i suppose given the activists finding out behind me now, tomorrow they will come and vote on a new constitution for Reform Uk, they will try to put in some structure underneath the party and that is really i suppose for the first time giving the members of say and how the party works, how it is structured and may be possibly and how is developed. Nigel Farage Talked about this as the party� s coming of age. Reform uks party� s coming of age. Reform uk� s coming of age, and the real test for that is whether it is developing into a real political force to be reckoned with will be at those local election next may. With will be at those local election next may. Yes, and he talked interestingly election next may. Yes, and he talked interestingly about election next may. Yes, and he talked interestingly about his i talked interestingly about his take on the strategy of that, saying he was wanted to emulate the lib dems, how they operated. As he said, many more seats, they got 72 seats, reform ended up with five. I he talks about the strategy, didn� t he . It talks about the strategy, didnt he . Didnt he . It was quite unusual. Didnt he . It was quite unusual, to didnt he . It was quite unusual, to hear didnt he . It was quite unusual, to hear at. Didnt he . It was quite unusual, to hear at a i didnt he . It was quite unusual, to hear at a main conference a party praising another party openly. They delivered leaflets throughout local areas, local elections in seats that they were targeting. And saying that that is what reform is. Whether the party comes, pathologies, technical difficulties here, hopefully you can still hear me. It� s up to these people finding out now what Nigel Farage said, whether it is, whether they are able to move on from this. I suppose that� s a Question Hanging of this conference, is that the High Point of Reform Uk, or are they able to build on the success they had in the general election, build on that 14 of the vote sure that they want, or is this a High Point. I suppose that is the Question Hanging over, the question Nigel Farage is trying to answer there is saying the answer there is saying the answer lies in that ground campaign, they are trying to build, trying to set up the people, there� s a whole series of desks outside in the main foyer, i walked past them earlier. Trying to encourage and all these people here to sign up to local branch movements, local Branch Parties to get involved in day to day political Campaigning And Volunteering i suppose. That� s the challenge for Reform Uk now. The question that lies over this campaign now. We can see and hear over this campaign now. We can see and hear you, over this campaign now. We can see and hear you, as over this campaign now. We can see and hear you, as we over this campaign now. We can see and hear you, as we see over this campaign now. We can| see and hear you, as we see the delegates behind you. Just at the end though, he did talk about more familiar themes for Reform Uk, talking about british history, valuing judeo christian culture, that underpins everything they stand for. Talking about the Dame Allison rose debacle, but saying we believe in meritocracy, not about your skin colour, your orientation. Wejudge you as skin colour, your orientation. We judge you as a person. If you look at the politics of what� s going on in other parts of europe, do you think Nigel Farage is actually seriously now looking at a much bigger potential Power Base . Potential Power Base . Well, thats certainly potential Power Base . Well, thats certainly what potential Power Base . Well, thats certainly what hes that� s certainly what he� s hoping for. I think the other thing that from conversations i� ve been having today in particular, the other thing you mentioned, that family, country, Culture Theme he mentioned there. Another thing we will hear a lot more from a form about is Net Zero and one party, any Party Figure saying that issue in campaigning against Net Zero targets may even be a bigger point of policy for Reform Uk then immigration come the next election, they are convinced that campaigning against Net Zero will be a Vote Winner for them over the next five years, over the next five years, that� s a interesting area to them over the next five years, that� s a interesting area to watch, in terms of the themes, watch, in terms of the themes, policies, ideas that Reform Uk policies, ideas that Reform Uk look to build on as they look look to build on as they look to those local elections in may to those local elections in may and then on to the general and then on to the general election next year. Certainly, election next year. Certainly, you ask whether Nigel Farage you ask whether Nigel Farage can build on this, that is can build on this, that is certainly the hope. There was certainly the hope. There was no shortage of ambition from the stage behind me, throughout the stage behind me, throughout the day actually, repeated references, claims that Nigel Farage could be the next prime minister, that is the hope here but i think really, what they� re focusing on when you talk to people in the party Behind The Scenes the more i suppose realistic ambition is that Reform Uk came second in 98 constituencies at the general election. And 89 of those examples they were second to labour. The focus very much for them is on those areas that came second, that means really focusing on the Labour Government and trying to be a critical opposition to Keir Starmer. We noticed the talk on the Labour Leader and leadership as they target Labour Voters now. Leadership as they target Labour Voters now. Terry farley in birmingham, Labour Voters now. Terry farley in birmingham, thank Labour Voters now. Terry farley in birmingham, thank you Labour Voters now. Terry farley in birmingham, thank you so i in birmingham, thank you so much for being with us. Just to bring you some breaking news on the labour party, amid the political criticism of some of the members of Labour Leadership accepting donations, sir Keir Starmer, lorena, and Rachel Reeves will not accept any donations for clothing in future. This does follow criticism for sir Keir Starmer for accepting such donations from the Labour Peer Lord alley. Those supporting sir Keir Starmer said it has been a Distraction But Everything has been, this is always about Transparency And Everything being declared and within the rules of course, but Downing Street have acknowledging there� s been some political damage as labour say they won� t be accepting any more donations for clothing in future, Keir Starmer, on the lebanese capital beirut, after hezbollah fired more than 100 rockets into israel this is the scene live.

Joining me now is our correspondens daniel de simone injerusalem.
