Reform could face legal action over Kent suspensions
Burton Mail
|November 07, 2025
A FORMER Reform councillor has announced he is considering legal action against the party for defamation of his character following his removal.
-
Reform UK won 57 of the 81 seats at Kent County Council (KCC) to take control of the authority in May, overturning a 30-year Conservative majority.
There are now 48 Reform councillors, with nine members having been either suspended or removed since then.
Last month, Councillor Robert Ford was removed from Reform UK following unofficial complaints from female members of staff. On Thursday, he said: “I'm currently taking legal advice regarding the defamation of my character by Reform UK at KCC that occurred on October 13 and I intend in the coming months to pursue this with vigour.”
