ER Editor: This bizarre, pointed reaction of disdain by the Reform UK Party deputy leader, Richard Tice, to supporters of Tommy Robinson is creating waves of outrage as of Sunday night on social media.
A reminder that a huge demonstration/march in London took place on Saturday, which missed Robinson because he had been arrested beforehand. There is now significant reaction against Tice, which is an understatement. From extended video commentary led by Paul Thorpe, there is reaction against Farage, too, who has also distanced himself from Robinson historically. Their reaction is very class-based, for cause. The Tommy Robinson Effect? In this video, Thorpe is calling for Ben Habib; UKIP could pick up more support as a byproduct. Andrew Bridgen gets honorable mentions.
A reminder that Reform is led by Nigel Farage; Tice is its deputy leader. Somewhere, this has to be strategic. Tice isn’t *this* politically unable to read the room, a point Paul Thorpe also makes. Thorpe also recognizes Farage as a lying disappointment.
Scanning historical tweets about Tice, he’s a pro-EU, pro-woke, Ukraine supporter who has had nothing to say against lockdowns and mandatory vaccines (here, here and here). Twitter users have called for him to step down before now.
Saturday’s march, people disrespected by Tice —

Unite the Kingdom March
Our countries will be gone if we don’t fight for them.
Such a beautiful display of respect for each other and love of their country!
This needs to happen EVERYWHERE!

RICHARD TICE
This is a massive misstep by Richard Tice. What does he mean by “Tommy Robinsons Lot”, does he mean:
The Veterans we met who were upset by being called fascist even though they fought fascism on the battlefield
The mother we met who was upset by the death of Peter Lynch… pic.twitter.com/Nw0ifjtbVc— Majority Unsilenced (@MajUnsilenced) October 27, 2024
Richard Tice must be aware that a great majority of that crowd are Reform voters who also follow and support Tommy Robinson.
Why are you trying to alienate a huge percentage of your voters? pic.twitter.com/slXrPZ8Oox

Am glad you have got this, So Tice wants nothing to do with ‘Tommy’ supporters, He needs to remember it was us who gave him his seat, So Richard Tice I think you should now step down as leader if you dont want our votes

Why Are Reform Betraying Their Base?
Nigel Farage and Richard Tice have made a concerted effort to distance themselves from anything genuinely patriotic and ‘right-wing’ of late – it seems their true colours are starting to shine through…

So the Reform Party not only failed to condemn the arrest and weaponised justice against Tommy Robinson they also describe those at the rally as “Tommy’s lot”
Reform are morphing into Tories it’s what Farage has always wanted.

Not when you alienate patriots like Richard Tice did this morning, your Party will be over before it’s begun given your treatment of your core vote

Farage dismisses Robinson around the 45 second mark, from early August —
Nigel Farage throws Tommy Robinson under the bus and boasts about helping to defeat the ‘far right’.
And this is the man who will ‘save Britain?’
He’s a spineless Tory— Paul Golding (@GoldingBF) August 6, 2024
