  • Ahead of the rally, Mr Farage criticised the “uncontrolled migration” policies of the SNP and Labour, claiming they were changing Scottish cities “beyond recognition”.
  • Mr Farage positioned Reform as the party of “radical change” in Scotland, contrasting it with the “old establishment” of the SNP and Labour.
