Conservative defector wins first-ever Reform UK seat in parliament

Nigel Farage’s right-wing populist Reform UK party wins its first parliamentary seat in the British election in the early hours of Friday, with Lee Anderson retaining a seat he won in 2019 when he was a member of the Conservative Party.

Anderson defected to Reform earlier this year and ran again as the party’s candidate.
