A Reform UK candidate's comments have been labelled deeply insensitive toward the Jewish community following a recent attack. Chris Parry, Reform's mayoral candidate for Hampshire, called Jewish volunteer group Shomrim "cosplayers" and compared them to "Islamists on horseback," after reposting a provocative question about Christian neighbourhood patrols. Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesperson Max Wilkinson called for Parry's immediate removal.
