Reform UK councillors suspended over video
Paisley Daily Express
|October 21, 2025
FOUR Reform UK councillors have been suspended after a video of their flagship council leader telling members to “suck it up” was leaked to the press.
-
Reform UK took control of Kent County Council after winning 57 of the 81 seats in May.
Footage of an online meeting on which council leader Linden Kemkaran berated backbench councillors when they questioned her was released by The Guardian on Saturday.
Ms Kemkaran said the council, with an annual budget of more than £2.5 billion, was a "shop window" to show the country that Reform could govern competently.
Yesterday, Reform UK announced the suspension of four councillors, including Paul Thomas who Ms Kemkaren threatened to mute during the meeting.
