Many of you having been writing in with your questions about the far right party Reform UK. They still confound lots of us, particularly when it comes to understanding why family or friends might actually vote for them. In this episode, Cody fields SOME of the MANY questions we received about Nigel Fararsehole's merry band of arseholes. What do they actually stand for? Why are they allowed to be a business?
