Nigel Farage has sacked Simon Dudley as Reform UK’s housing spokesman after mounting anger over his comment that the Grenfell Tower fire was a “tragedy” but that “everyone dies in the end”.

Reform leader Mr Farage said Mr Dudley is “no longer a spokesman” after his “deeply inappropriate” words at a central London press conference on Thursday.
