October 22, 2025

REFORM UK has confirmed a councillor in Northumberland has been kicked out of the party over alleged “unacceptable” comments he made online.

- JAMES ROBINSON

Hirst councillor John Allen becomes the third Reform councillor to be expelled from the party in recent weeks, following Nicole Brooke and Patrick Lambert.

While Northumberland County Council’s website has only recently been updated, Reform said that Coun Allen had been expelled a few weeks ago. It follows an investigation into allegations the councillor posted comments online about wanting to kill Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.
