It is not a party its a registered business which will soon be bankrupt!!!!

I'd like to believe the media too, but have learned from experience. Ben is too heavy handed to appeal to the chattering classes, so was removed. The UK needs a firm hand, not a velvet glove.

They don’t have to be an MP

Hasn't been sacked but demoted.

Ben went straight on twitter to burn his bridges and bad-mouth ReformUK. WE DON'T WANT PEOPLE LIKE THAT IN THE PARTY

the guy who couldn't even campaign in the right town?

YES I FEEL THE SAME😇

Reform for Islam! ☪️ Yusuf for prime minister!

But he is muslim? Reform don't like Muslims?

Why, the same people and counties that backed the Tories back Reform UK, including the Kremlin, that not even an opinion.

Humble? I think you should look at Cr David Bull’s reply to stepping down. Ben Habib was. Co-deputy leader with Dr David but their responses are vastly different. One steps down gracefully and ther’s ego is squawking like a stuck pig.

@@gwenstone8171 There was nothing derogatory about Ben's statement. I certainly didn't hear any squaking. Ben's a thoroughly nice man who was showing complete support for Reform. I hope Ben will still serve in the Reform Party in one form or another. Kevin was trying very hard to put words in Ben's mouth and it didn't work.

Its that reason they have thrown him under the bus .he didnt fit in .now they will be preaching reform at the mosques soon .

Pity his boss hasn't got any integrity as we have just seen .with sellout farage .

Did they stick with the Cons? What's their name?

I'm a Reform voter and wouldn't have voted for Habibi he's a Pakistani!

@@stephenjon3502 👍Thanks. Lost their minds then! 🙄

@@markjeffery7319 no your not

That’s a very good idea! HBen would be brilliant at this job!

Do you really think he will stay after being stabbed in the back

😂😂

I agree. i said that too when the election results came out..Wellingborough let our country down by not electing Ben...

I absolutely agree 💯 Ben Habib is a decent man and a great asset to the Reform UK 🇬🇧 movement. Please don’t let him go like this Nigel!!!

How can a constituency, "let a country down". In a democracy the voters in a constituency choose the candidate they want, unless you believe democracy is only for people who agree with you.

Doesn’t look like anyone wants poor old Ben 😂😂😂

A great result when he was not elected.

He was a remainer

@@cordoroy9515he was not 😂

@@cordoroy9515 He was in the Brexit Party and was an MEP.

​@@cordoroy9515had some sense then

​@@joycejnnhe was i heard him say it lol

I would say maybe you members could all have a vote for Ben but as its a PLC you can't. Maybe go outside and clap at 8.

Well why can’t he win an election ? Nobody wants him not even Reform.

NOT!

Nigel and Richard should be putting him in charge of a team building up their grass root support in those constituencies where they had a good second or third place candidate. Or put him in charge of their central office until a suitable by-election comes along. I'd like to see him in the House but he could be doing so much outside it too.

Fake News.

​@@zog97xy TROLL!

And don't use this person to voice any issues. Yalk Talk are nothing but ambulance chasers for a story.

He's a Pakistani!

A big mistake!As a Reform voter we need Ben !He is one of the best!A Great man.❤

He tells lies...just like Farage. Get rid of Reform and its gullible idiot voters

Reform hasn't lost Ben...he''ll carry on regardless....👍

Just like all the grass roots and management

He hasn't gone anywhere what you on about ?

It's possible that might happen

Absolutely 💯

Yes, in other words a jobsworth 😂😂😂

Love that

Totally agree!

So why could he not have the post that Zia has taken, he is new and not an MP

Exactly..they need the deputy leader in the parliament....

A small fact that escapes the majority moaning about this..

That is logical in terms of in-house parliamentary politics. it is to be hoped that Mr Habib finds a role that reflects well on Reform UK and himself and that he can obtain a deserved election to Parliament in due course.

Tice will be a great deputy

That is an excellent suggestion

He might have if he just patient, but this is horrible decision ro air dirty laundry in public

Great idea...it would free Wales from the marxist dictatorship....

You lot were convinced that you were going to win a week ago ! How we laughed.

@@oureyesisrael2547Are you saying a one Mr Habib is throwing his toys out of the cot.

Me too!

I would put him in charge of co-ordinating the building of the 'movement', creating the nationwide network of canvassers and activists at constituency level that will support future parliamentary candidates in a way that was impossible at such short notice this time (and that would've made the C4 fiasco much more difficult to spring). The 'parliamentary party' has to be parliamentary in order to be a serious contender for government, or even opposition, in 2029. Otherwise they'll be seen as just another niche group of sad little activists like the Greens, with every seat considered a monumental victory. That's not the party any of us wants, including Ben, and I think his sacrifice will be temporary and pay dividends for the party and himself in the future in such a role. His obvious popularity among supporters makes him the perfect candidate for the role, freeing up those now in Parliament to focus more on their role without getting mired down in micro-management at grassroots level that is equally important, possibly more so.

Oh no.. democracy

​@@UnknownUser-by4le No you blindly voted for a dictatorship 😂😂😂😂 We voted for freedom. And freedom this time unfortunately lost...😢😢

​@@UnknownUser-by4le Did you vote Labour.? Because if you did you didn't voted for a democracy, you voted for a dictatorship 😂😂😂 Unfortunately .!! We voted for freedom, Unfortunately freedom lost this time around. Enjoy your extra taxes coming out of your pocket, 3k down per year on your wise vote.. How you paying for next year's holiday now.? No doubt higher energy bills as well, oh don't forget higher water rates as well. How's this new government looking so far.? Not even a week in and already all the above happening, and to add to it Starmer is letting all the villains out of prison early.!! So crimes going to go through the roof as well.. Got any kids ? Daughters.?? Don't let them leave your side let alone sight. Because they'll be the very first victims. How's that new Labour government looking now then.?? DEMOCRACY LOL .!!! Yeah keep dreaming..

​@@ianrose56totally agree.

A gentleman does not make a kerfuffle publicly acting like a baby. HE LOST HIS SEAT. Dropping hints in media he might quit Reform tells us all we need to know. If it was REALLY about what is best for Reform, he would understand a leadership decision was made and he should be man enough to accept it.

So very well put, @anthonyroe1966.

Grace is exactly the word that immediately sprang to my mind when I watched this.

Ben can see that Reform are what this country ultimately needs. Let's try to INCREASE the number of voters for this party / movement. Let's keep making the best possible, most positive noises for Reform.

It's called democracy. Wind your neck in and move on.

​@@stephenjon3502 first past the post is NOT democratic!

It’s where I went to school and where my parents died. It was let down by Boneo and was right to reject this racist. Twice! Will he get the message?

@timothysmart8528 what did he say that was racist specifically? because these days everyone is calling everyone a racist. It's kinda lost it's impact. I need receipts.

Cope better

I voted Reform after listening to what Ben had to say I was going to join the party but now have decided not to

​@@deedub577 Deputy leaders need to be MPs, standard stuff. Hopefully he remains in party with some form of role though, as he is a good person to have on the team

​​@@deedub577there are plenty of proud patriots in Reform. Ben is a great bloke, but not the only one in the party. If Ben is your only reason to support Reform, your not paying attention to the real issues.

Think Ben ‘s time will come he will be an MP.

​@@johnrambo99999Totally Agree !!!!.

Sadly though he’s not an MP. 😢

@@sumary7663 Does he need to be? For the party to grow there needs to be local offices, databases of members to establish where the focus for the party should be placed, so that news letters and shared ideas can develop, there needs to be a central office. There also needs to be a point of contact with the media .. Ben could do all this while he waits for a bye election opportunity to become an MP.

@@JACB006 Yes I agree. I certainly wouldn’t like him to leave Reform. He’s such a good man.

Yes closely followed by Lee Andesrson 😂😂😂

Yes, that is why Nige doesn't want him. Please stay Ben

He Would Let Children Drown. FFS !!!!

Its those who pull the strings in the background who we dont see are the real hero's i hope ben adopts this mantra and build on it.... Not everyone as to be in the lime light to be one of the most influential and cornerstones of a movement, untill the curtain is lifted later on down the road to show us all the true stars who made it work..

Hear Hear

It's not that simple, he's being childish. It's not about him, it's about the party and the people.

I cannot think of another person in politics with more integrity than Ben. For me this is the most important issue in politics. I hope he stays with Reform as it would be a lesser party without him. In any case best wishes to him and so glad that so many also see these rare qualities in him and know that it is what we need in every walk of life and especially politics.

@@theinngu5560 Well said.
