'Nigel Farage will campaign on the streets in Scotland'

Nigel Farage will have "much more" of a presence in Scotland as Reform UK ramps up its election campaign.

The party had huge success in Thursday's local elections in England, gaining more than 600 seats and winning control of 10 local authorities, while also winning the Westminster by-election for Runcorn and Helsby.

Thomas Kerr, a Reform councillor in Glasgow who defected from the Tories in January, told the BBC the party wants to capitalise on that momentum - with leader Farage at the forefront.

Reform are being forecast in several polls to do well in next year's Holyrood elections, and win their first MSPs.
