Reform UK is now a significant force in British politics, with eight MPs in the House of Commons and a growing party organisation. Beyond Parliament, the party is run by a small leadership team. Nigel Farage leads both the party and the parliamentary group; David Bull serves as party chairman; and Zia Yusuf — the former chairman who built much of the post-election party machine — holds the Home Affairs spokesmanship.

Zia Yusuf (born October 1986) is Reform UK's Spokesperson for Home Affairs. He was the party's chairman from July 2024 to June 2025, and is one of the most prominent non-MP figures in Reform UK. A British-Scottish businessman of Sri Lankan heritage, he studied at the LSE and was a major donor before joining the party.

Yes. Reform UK won 5 seats at the July 2024 general election — the party's best ever result: Farage (Clacton), Anderson (Ashfield), Tice (Boston and Skegness), Lowe (Great Yarmouth), and McMurdock (South Basildon and East Thurrock). Lowe and McMurdock subsequently left the party, but the group has since grown through by-election wins and Conservative defections.
Four Conservative MPs joined Reform UK in late 2025 and early 2026: Danny Kruger (East Wiltshire, September 2025), Robert Jenrick (Newark, January 2026), Andrew Rosindell (Romford, January 2026), and Suella Braverman (Fareham and Waterlooville, January 2026).
Reform UK forms a significant minor party group of eight MPs in the House of Commons. The group has grown from its initial five seats won in July 2024, boosted by the Runcorn and Helsby by-election and four Conservative defections. The party argues first-past-the-post dramatically under-represents its 4.1 million vote support base.
