Reform UK say they are ‘mortified’ after sacking an inactive parliamentary candidate who later turned out to be dead.
The hard-right political party dropped York Central candidate Tommy Cawkwell after he failed to reply to their emails and phone calls.
Reform initially said they had rescinded his candidacy due to inappropriate messages on social media, but later discovered he had died following the selection process.
