Robert Kenyon, Reform UK’s candidate in the Makerfield by-election, is reported to have supported remaining in the European Union based on posts and voting history discussed by multiple outlets. The Canary says Kenyon voted to remain in the EU, raising questions because Reform’s political brand is closely associated with the Leave campaign. Left Foot Forward similarly reports that “unearthed posts” contradict Reform and Nigel Farage’s Brexit position, describing Kenyon’s remarks as inconsistent with the party’s stance. Both reports focus on earlier statements made by Kenyon, including activity from 2019, which they say conflicts with the Brexit message that Reform presents in UK politics. The articles do not provide details of any current policy shift by Kenyon or Reform, and they center on whether his past views align with the party’s position on Brexit and EU membership. The scrutiny is therefore directed at historical voting and commentary rather than any new statement reported by these sources.
