Reform UK MPs' nursery boss praises Farage's party on website

The company running the House of Commons nursery and others across London has been criticised for publishing an article on its website praising Reform UK's conference and claiming anti-immigration protests were "driven by a sense of injustice".

The article, which was taken down by LEYF nurseries after an approach by the Guardian, was written by its chief executive, June O'Sullivan, after her visit to the party's conference.

It described the government's budget as "disastrous", referred to the "frittering away of taxpayers' money", and used the pejorative "Rachel from accounts" to refer to the chancellor, Rachel Reeves.

House of Commons authorities said they would remind the company of its responsibilities as a contractor when it came to public communications.
