REFORM will NOT do a deal with the Tories because they aren't "honourable", Nigel Farage blasted today. Speaking at a farmer's inheritance tax protest in North London, the party leader shut down talk of a pact between himself and Kemi Badenoch. Mr Farage also ruled out doing a deal with Boris Johnson if he ever made a surprise return to front line politics. The Reform boss, who appeared at the protest alongside boxing champion Derek Chisora, said: "To do a pact with people, you've got to think, I'm going to shake your hand and you're an honourable person.

"After the betrayal post the 2019 election, we do not believe them to be honourable. "Simple as that, so the answer is no.". Mr Farage insisted his party's five MPs are doing a better job than the 121 Tory representatives in the Commons. He said: "I think we're the ones providing the challenge. We're the ones out doing stuff every day.". "Frankly, today's the 100th day of Kemi Badenoch's leadership - it doesn't stand for anything.".

Talk of deal between Reform and the Tories exploded last week after Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick refused to rule out holding backroom chats on Never Mind The Ballots. But both Kemi Badenoch and a Reform spokesperson were straight out the bat to knock the idea down. At the farmer's protest Mr Farage also blasted Rachel Reeves' inheritance tax raid on the agricultural sector. He told hundreds of distressed workers: "I'm pleased to see the campaign is ramping up. It's growing right across the country.

"The message I've been putting to them, I think they're listening too, which is 100 Labour MPs now represent rural seats - if they see local communities getting behind these families, they're going to start getting scared, and they're going to start putting pressure on No 10, and let's face it, they're in pretty big trouble already.". Mr Farage called for "horrible" inheritance levies to be scrapped altogether.
