Leslie Lilley, the Reform candidate in Southend East and Rochford - expected to get 20% of the vote - said he would “slaughter” migrants arriving on small boats and “have their family taken out”.

Yeah, he looks like he'd definitely be up for the task and definitely not get immediately winded by reality.

Again & over & over. Anyone that hates humanity this much should have no right to lead or represent their fellow beings. This is hate speech & a potential hate crime. How Hitler of this guy to say. Sad!

That sounds like an arrestable offence.

The Times reported a couple of weeks ago that 10% of Reform candidates have some association (social media following etc) with Gary Raikes and others of the fascist New British Union.

I think this crosses the line into hate speech

Some for sure but I don't think they all know. A lot just want "something different". Thankyou journalists for persisting in reporting the details.

Does this not fall into the category of hate speech?

It's a disgustingly low standard for someone seeking high public office. But niggel Fartrage will be okay with it which ought to be a clear signal to the vast majority of his unfitness to 'lead'.

Of course he will say he’s not OK with it, but in reality…..he will be ok with it..

This is our Reform candidate where I live. He was awful at hustings last night. Reform have chosen the absolute dregs to stand for election. God help us.

particularly disappointing, as Bicester & Woodstock is Rupert Harrison's first attempt to win a seat for the Tories. was genuinely hoping the Reform candidate would spoil his party and let the LD candidate in.

Would have to hope the Reform candidate is invisible and people just go for the party at the ballot.

The LibDem was the most impressive last night, so fingers crossed. The Tory was doing his best to disassociate himself from his party, but it was noted that they was one of the architects of austerity under the Cameron/Osborn government

Reminder that a large chunk of the Tory party would like to merge with Reform and think Farage would make a good leader. National front —> BNP —> UKIP —> Reform, it is always the same: grifters exploiting stupidity and social exclusion to drive grievance and evil.

To be fair, they'll probably love that in Southend.

Farage: "he was quoted out.of context, and this sort out outrage archaeology does nothing for the political debate in our country". Reporter: "Will you suspend him?" Farage: "Certainly not"

I’m not sure that Reform understand our culture . Who was it that said something like that …?

Astonishing how someone like that is allowed to seek any position in power.

Quite a few voters have seen the UK break down since Brexit and thought, "Let's murder human beings!"

It would be great, if the “Kellernazis” would go back to the deep hole they crawled out from.

How genuinely sick to think or say

With this reveal, his projected share presumably rose to 37% in Rochford
