Nigel Farage says he'll stand for Reform as he takes over party leadership

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

Nigel Farage used an "emergency announcement" to reveal that he had taken over leadership of Reform UK from his colleague Richard Tice, and would stand at the election in the seat of Clacton. That's despite ruling out standing after the election was called over a week ago. The champion of Brexit said he wanted to lead a "political revolt". We spoke to the man he replaced, Richard Tice. Many Mexicans are celebrating the election of the first woman President after elections there, but others are concerned about her plans for the constitution. And what has become of Ruja Ignatova, the so-called "cryptoqueen" who disappeared in 2017? A BBC investigation found new evidence suggesting she may have been murdered.
