Farage wishes Reform 'hadn't bothered' to take control of Worcestershire

Nigel Farage has expressed regret over Reform UK’s victory in the Worcestershire County Council elections, suggesting that the party may have been better off avoiding the complexities of local governance.
He argued that taking control of the council has forced the party to manage significant financial deficits and inherited systemic issues, which could potentially distract from their national political objectives.
While critics view these comments as an attempt to distance the party from the challenges of governing, Farage maintains that the move has placed an undue burden on Reform's resources at a critical time for their broader movement.
