Streeting accuses Reform MP of racism over TV ads
The Gazette
|October 27, 2025
A CABINET minister has accused Reform UK MP Sarah Pochin of racism after she said: “it drives me mad when I see adverts full of black people, full of Asian people.”
-
Health Secretary Wes Streeting called her comments “a disgrace” and hit out at Reform UK’s leader Nigel Farage for not rebuking her.
Runcorn and Helsby MP Ms Pochin said her comments were “phrased poorly” and apologised for any offence.
But Mr Streeting told the BBC’s Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg: “She's only sorry that she’s been caught and called out, and she said the quiet bit loud. What we have seen on our streets in recent weeks and months is a return of 1970s, 1980s-style racism that I thought we had left in the history books.
