Nigel Farage has refused to rule out a return to front line politics but has said that giving up his role at GB News would be ‘a big price to pay' and also predicted: 'We're going to get Labour anyway.'
Mr Farage also said he believes Labour were heading for "a decade in power".
Launching an excoriating attack on the government’s record in power as he was asked whether Reform would help Labour win power he told GB News:
“2019 was an election where not only did I get rid of Mrs. May but I stood aside for Boris Johnson.

“I wanted to get Brexit done, of course I did. And they made a series of promises in that manifesto that they never intended to keep and now they're saying: ‘We know we're useless but please vote for us because Labour are worse.’ Boring, boring, boring.
“Our politics is failing at every level. We need a complete revolution in the way things are done.
“This is not a one election plan, let's be clear about that. Richard Tice is not saying, ‘vote for us and we’ll form the next government.’ Richard Tice is saying ‘Vote for us and let's begin this revolution.’
“We got back self-government – great. Now we have to work out how to use it and how to do it rather more effectively than either Labour or Conservatives can.
“So it's a long term game and we’ll level with the voters on that.
“And ultimately, you know this idea – vote Reform, you'll get Labour. Here's the truth of it. We're going to get Labour anyway.
“Today's YouGov poll had Labour 24 points ahead, so this attempt to try and squeeze the Reform vote is no good, because The Conservatives' are doomed.
“I think Labour have got a decade in power written in already, such is the level of disenchantment at the Conservatives and what they've done.
“I don't know whether the Conservatives are going to be replaced, whether they're going to be changed; what I do know is that Reform is going to play a very important role in realigning the centre right of British politics to give us a proper choice.
“I'm already the founder of the party, I chose the name, I set it up. I'm the president. I'm going to support Ben Habib in the Wellingborough by-election because I think it could actually be a very good wake up call for the whole Westminster establishment.
“As to as to whether I get more deeply involved or not, I don't know. I haven't decided I'm weighing up all the options.
“One of those options being that I do enjoy being part of the broadcasting revolution at GB News and giving that up would be really quite a big price to pay in many ways.
“I don't yet know what I'm going to do but make no mistake, I do think Reform is on the right path over the course of the next six years to change British politics in a way that most can't imagine.”
