The party has responded after the Lib Dem leader, Sir Ed Davey, came out swinging for the former boxer, and Reform Mayor of Hull and East Yorkshire, Luke Campbell.

With Hull City Council's local elections just a few weeks away, Reform UK and the Lib Dems have entered a political row. The Lib Dems who currently run the council are looking to keep or build upon their majority of 1 while Reform UK hope to replicate their success in last year's Mayoral election and secure their first councillors in the Guildhall.
