Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party has asked the Election Commission to change its name to Reform UK.
The party contested 275 seats and obtained 2% of the votes, but failed to elect a deputy in the 2019 British general elections.
Now it will broaden its agenda to include the coronavirus and seek “reforms” in other areas.
Farage said: “As we promised, we are closely following the government’s trade negotiations with the EU to ensure a proper Brexit. Further reform in many other areas is also vital for the future of our nation.”
President Richard Tice added: “The need for major reform in the UK is clearer now than ever.
“A new approach is essential, for the government to work for the people, not for itself. The most pressing issue is a new coronavirus strategy, so that we learn to live with it, not hide out of fear.”
Farage said in December that the party could become the “reformist party” if the UK leaves the EU on January 31.
He revealed that he had already registered the name, adding that “he would have to campaign to change the policy forever.”
