WATCH: Nigel Farage flees town after being met by protesters

Nigel Farage was chased out of a Suffolk town by protesters ahead of a planned rally. The Reform UK leader and other representatives for the political party are holding a rally at Trinity Park Conference and Events Centre in Ipswich later this evening. Ahead of the event, Farage visited Felixstowe and was expected to have a walk through the seaside town. However, he was met with protesters who had gathered outside Spud Hut in Hamilton Road. The group held up signs and shouted chants as the Reform UK leader stayed inside the cafe. Around ten minutes later, the MP for Clacton-on-Sea got into a grey Volvo and drove away, beeping at the group of protestors as they attempted to follow the vehicle.

Reform will put up your taxes, close care homes, take away your rights." One of Reform UK's policies is to cut taxes for workers and businesses. The rally in Ipswich is expected to start at 7pm and a counter-protest is expected to take place an hour before. When he announced the event, Farage said: "I'm coming to Suffolk because your community deserves better than the managed decline delivered by Labour and the Conservatives. "They have broken Britain, and they refuse to admit it. "This campaign is about telling the truth and offering real change. Reform UK is ready to fix Britain - but we can't do it without you."
