Reform is surging and challenging the uniparty monopoly. As we gain credibility we can convince more people to switch. We’re a young party and we’ve a way to go. We’re up against established organisations from Parties who’ve been in place for years. But as you can see, we are now a contender in many places and our strength is growing.
