Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has been sweet-talking the trade unions in public.

TUC general secretary Paul Nowak accuses Farage of "cosplaying as a champion of working people" Unison 's general secretary Christina McAnea urged members of councils now controlled by Reform to join a union.

Ex-Reform press officer says Farage isn't against workers' rights - he's just opposed to Labour 's bill.

Labour risks leaving "space open for fakers like Farage to pretend they have people's interests at heart", says general secretary of the General Federation of Trade Unions .

Farage's strategy is "from the same playbook" as right-wing parties in Europe , says GMB member.

Sources in Labour have dismissed Farage 's tactics as just words - and believe previous anti-union rhetoric will weigh against him.
