Nigel Farage and his Reform Party held a huge rally in Birmingham over the weekend, drawing comparisons to the large-scale events typically associated with former President Donald Trump. Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse and a former advisor to Farage, attended the rally and described the scale of the event as “incredible,” noting that such political gatherings are unusual in England.

Kassam highlighted the rally’s significance, pointing out that before Farage and the Reform Party entered the current election cycle, British politics was characterized by a lack of excitement and engagement. He criticized the traditional parties, calling the Labour Party and the Conservative Party “boring” and indicating that Farage’s movement has energized voters across the country. Kassam mentioned several locations where this change is evident, including London, Clacton, Birmingham, and Sunderland, noting that people are increasingly desperate for change.

Kassam emphasized that voters are now more willing to actively participate in politics and express their political beliefs openly. He described this as a “critical moment for the populist-nationalist movement all across the Western world,” with the Birmingham rally serving as “ground zero” for this shift in political dynamics.

Britain’s snap election is scheduled for July 4, and the rally indicates a growing momentum for Farage and the Reform Party as they challenge the established political order.
