Of course he is
Abysmal vetting in 2024: had to ditch around one sixth of those they selected for parliamentary seats!
But need to find many many more people than 630 to contest devolved, Mayoral, council elections
Only 8% of voters were 2024 Conservatives confident that Reform is not racist. A third on the fence. A third thought it was. (July 2024)
About a quarter of the 14% reject basic norms. 1/4 supported the riots & would prefer a more overtly racist party

Is the party "racist"?
Ukip in May 2015
A racist party 40%
Not a racist party 43%
Neutral 17%
Reform in July 2024
Racist 41%
Not racist 30%
Neutral 29%
If both those parties can make a concerted effort to arouse suspicion & doubt of Reform in voters minds.
The trick will be to get the not satisfied with Tory or Reform voters to vote at all.
The bigots just hate slightly different groups of people.
