A senior Reform UK activist was a member of a far-right group that advocates for a form of ethnic cleansing, it has been revealed.
In what will further add to concerns about the kinds of values Reform espouses and what Nigel Farage’s party stands for, anti-extremist campaign group Hope not Hate has revealed that George Jones was once a prominent figure in the Traditional Britain Group (TBG), ‘an organisation that organises conferences and events about so-called “remigration”, or the removal of millions of non-white people from the UK’.
Hope not Hate adds: “TBG has hosted talks by race scientists such as Edward Dutton and radical right politicians like the AfD’s Stefan Korte, who spoke about remigration being “an absolute necessity”.
During the 2010s Jones was a member of the TBG committee and was photographed addressing the group’s annual black-tie dinner.
Jones was also reported to be in charge of the Patrons’ Club, a group for Reform donors who give more than £1,000.
He also has associations with the BNP, having campaigned with the far-right party in its failed 2010 Barking and Dagenham campaign. A report in the Financial Times identified him applauding a speech by Nick Griffin, then the BNP’s leader.
Will Farage take action against him?
