A huge debate has broken out between Reform UK and the Conservative Party.
Reform are claiming they now have more members - with leader Nigel Farage calling it an 'historic moment' - even going so far as to say they are the real opposition to the Labour government.A digital ticker on their website shows they now have more than 131,000 members - the number registered during the Tory leadership contest.But, Tory party leader Kemi Badenoch is disputing the credibility of the counter - saying it increases automatically.
"We will gladly invite one of the Big 4 firms in to audit our membership numbers as long as you do the same. "We have also heard from many Tory whistleblowers that will swear under affidavits that ballots were sent out to long expired or resigned ex-members in your leadership election. "It’s an open secret at CCHQ that your membership numbers are fake.
