'We're not safe': Richard Tice fights back tears as he reveals attack that triggered armed police

On today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Jacob Rees-Mogg sit down with Reform UK’s deputy leader Richard Tice. He opens up about the death of his party colleague Ann Widdecombe and the safety of MPs and politically active party members.

Tice gets emotional when recounting a dangerous incident outside Parliament last year in which armed police were called to his aid.

Meanwhile, Camilla speaks to former Clacton MP Douglas Carswell who also reacts to the latest developments in the investigation into Widdecombe’s death. He also weighs in on Nigel Farage’s high-stakes by-election gamble and believes a “Reform-Tory mashup” may be the only way to rescue the country from decades of stagnation.
