Nigel Farage has insisted he is not currently seeking to join the Conservative Party.
The former Ukip and Brexit Party leader said “you must be joking” when asked about the move as he attended the launch of the Popular Conservatives movement today.
He said: “I’m not looking to join the Tory party, you must be joking.
“Not at the moment, given what they stand for.
“And as far as this group’s concerned, I’d rather be part of Reform because that’s the real thing.”
Pressed whether he will remain a GB News presenter or stand as a Reform candidate, Mr Farage added: “I’m very happy with life as it is, thank you very much indeed. Doesn’t mean I won’t change my mind.”
His latest comments come amid speculation over whether he will make a political comeback.
Mr Farage is currently the honorary president of the insurgent party Reform UK.
