Union Boss Sharon Graham Rejects Farage's Claim That Reform UK Is Now the Party of the Working Class

Summary
A trade union boss (Sharon Graham) has dismissed Nigel Farage's claim that Reform UK is now the party of the working class. New polling from The Times shows that 28% of trade union members would now vote Reform, matching the 28% who back Labour — a dramatic shift from the 2024 general election when 48% of union members supported Labour and only 16% backed Reform. Farage reacted on social media, claiming Labour is no longer the party of the patriotic working class, but Graham countered by pointing to his voting record in the Commons.
