UKIP leader Nick Tenconi is treating Britain’s anti-migrant protests as his own personal roadshow. Like a far-right whackamole, he has popped up at locations across the country, taking advantage of fired-up protesters to preach hate “in the name of God”.

But, in reality, he hosts exceptionally extreme plans which promoted the deportation of one in seven of the UK population. Furthermore, he has a history of vile social media posts which objectify women

As Tenconi seems to have become the speaker of choice for anti-migrant protests, you’ve got to wonder: do the locals know exactly who they are cheering for?

In late June, the shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick took the stand at a conference. Addressing the crowd of Tories and radical-right political figures, he made an unusual statement. “I am what can be described as an Anglofuturist.” he said. His statement was applauded. But what did he actually mean?

The movement's aims are much darker than they appear at first glance. Behind the gimmicky images of spaceships named after famous Victorians is a group of people pushing, at the very least for mass deportations, and, at worst, a whites-only nation. Anglofuturism is a gloss over disturbingly extreme ideas.

Reform UK national director Adam Bounds tried to recruit members to a "physical resistance group" for "gorillas by night tactics" and promoted far-right and conspiracy theory content.

HOPE not hate has identified a now-deleted account on the messaging app Telegram as having belonged to Reform UK’s Adam Bounds.

After last year’s general election, Nigel Farage promised that “those ‘bad apples’ that have crept in will be gone”.

But Bounds is yet another so-called “bad apple” having worked for Farage’s party since the election.
