Reform UK has suspended Rupert Lowe and reported him to the police following complaints of bullying from two female staff members and allegations of violent threats against the party chair.
Mr Lowe, 67, has released a statement saying the allegations were "untrue and false", the accusations of physical threats were "outrageous and entirely untrue", and he referenced a "vexatious complaint" made by another staff member.
