Report UK was greatly divided on Friday, as the party removed the whip from one of its five deputies and said that the police were informed of alleged threats of physical violence against the party chair.

The row between the right -wing Nigel Faraj Party and MP Robert Lowe threw the reform in chaos, and it is also trying to strengthen its progress in the polls against the ruling Labor Party and the main conservative opposition.

Tensions within the party increased in recent days, as Louis claimed earlier this week that the driving method was “Christian”.

On Friday, President Sayat Lee Anderson and its president, Dia Youssef, said that the party also appointed a lawyer of an independent king to investigate complaints from employees accusing Louis of bullying.

Louis, who has been a deputy of Great Yarmouth since last July, said that there was “reliable yellow evidence” against him and that he was disappointed and surprised by the “incorrect and sermon”.

He added, “It is not surprising that this amazing statement was issued the next day for the reasonable and constructive people of Nigel and the structure of the reform.”

On Friday evening, the claims and allegations are placed on Friday evening, which dreams of violating the work of the parliamentary work and the governors. It has now been reduced to only four deputies.

Anderson and Youssef said that Louis was at least two appropriate violence against the latter and that it was “now with the police.”

Their statement claimed: “Evidence of us was provided with bullying in the workplace, targeting female employees who raised concerns, and evidence of insulting and discriminatory notes made by women, including a reference to the perceived disability.”

On Wednesday, Louis seemed to be wondering about the Farage leadership leadership, saying about a Brexit activist in the Daily Mail interview: “Nigel is a strong independent individual. He got Christian qualities.”

He added: “Will these Messiah qualities have a wise leadership? I don’t know.”

Faraj was criticized by Elon Musk for refusing to support the right -wing extremist instigator Tommy Robinson, who is in prison for the contempt of the court. Musk has repeatedly called for Robinson, his real name is Stepheny-Lennon, for his release.

In January, amid suggestions that Musk may donate large sums of the party, the American billionaire suggested that Lowa take leadership from Farage.

Youssef Anderson said that their party had a care for all its employees. “Reform symbolizes the highest standards of behavior in public life, and we will apply these standards without fear or benefit, including in our party.”

“Let me be very clear – this investigation is based on reliable evidence, as the neutral investigator has repeatedly stated,” said Lowe’s statement.

He said that he spoke to KC, who was asked to investigate the allegations: “I felt dismay because this statement had been done, and I repeated that no evidence was sent against me. I stated that this had been issued before the investigation began.”

“The allegations of physical threats are not completely and incorrect,” Louis said.

The deputy said that he had previously sought to improve party functions only to be frozen from meetings, ignored and mocked them. He said: “All I mentioned is that communications need to be improved, the authorization needs to be improved, and the structure needs to be improved.”

“The complete inability to accept even the most light constructive criticism without a malicious reaction is not an effective leadership. This is our party as much as Nigel.”

Louis is a former city investment banker who founded Care Home Support Sustore, and he was the president of Southampton Football Club.

Farage was elected for the first time to Parliament last year, but it is one of the most influential figures in modern British policy with its decades -long campaign for Britain to leave the European Union, as well as its former leadership of the UK Independence Party.

He then created a British exit party from the European Union, which failed to win any seats in the 2019 general elections.

His latest political cars, Romost UK, got 4 million votes in the elections last year-which ranked third at the national level-but it only got five seats under the first British system.

However, Report UK has gained towards the public as it seeks to the superiority of the most realistic conservative party from right on issues such as immigration and “zero” green policies.

One of Louis’s most important splits with Faraj had exceeded his defense of Robinson earlier this year, as Louis said, “He does not deserve to get the credit for the things he did.”
