REFORM LAUNCHES FEARLESS NEW PAPER DEVOTED TO HOLDING ONE MAN TO ACCOUNT (IT'S HIM, HE'S THE MAN)

Reform UK has launched The Reformer, a gritty new 'newspaper' whose only credited reporter is, by sheer bloody coincidence, Nigel Farage. The front page features Nigel, a labrador and the headline 'we will fix broken Britain', while elsewhere it reports the Clacton by-election as 'Farage 22,239, Establishment 0' – a thrilling scoreline that skips the bit where the main parties didn't stand and his chief rival was Count Binface. The labrador is understood to be the paper's most balanced columnist.

THE BORING BIT: WHAT THE REAL REPORT SAYS

Reform's free paper The Reformer credits only Farage as a reporter; front page shows him with a labrador; reports Clacton result as 'Farage 22,239, Establishment 0' though main parties did not stand and his main opponent was Count Binface.

Our short summary of the original – read the full report for context. Everything above it is satire.
