[ad_1] The Deep State is getting desperate, say Reform UK, and is doing everything it can to halt the advance of Nigel Farage’s anti-immigration party, which has been leading the UK opinion polls for most of the last eighteen months.

I was home for the Christmas holidays from Drew University, where I would graduate in June and continue my career as a Methodist preacher.
