Reform UK chairman Zia Yusuf says his party's mission is to "remoralise" young people.

Speaking off the back of his party's massive gains in the local elections, Mr Yusuf said young people were being taught to "hate their country" and that Reform's mission was to change their morals.

"There has been an industrial-scale demoralisation, particularly of young people in this country, who are basically being taught quite deliberately that they should hate their country; they should be deeply ashamed of their country's history; that the United Kingdom had a brutal empire," he told The Times.
