“Clever” Nigel Farage is aiming for a “youthquake” at the next General Election, Claire Muldoon has claimed.
Polling last week suggested that Reform UK are the second most popular party among 16 to 17-year-olds.
Recent polling data by JL Partners indicated that Labour is the most popular party among 16-17 year-olds on 39 per cent, with Reform gaining considerable traction at 23 per cent.
It puts the party ahead of the Greens (18 per cent), and Liberal Democrats (9 per cent), with the Conservatives on just five per cent, according to the survey.
Among males in this age bracket, Reform is tied with Labour at 35 per cent, while the Lib Dems and Tories have 11 per cent each and Green support stood at a mere two per cent.
Speaking to GB News, Claire Muldoon said: “Nigel Farage, he’s very clever. He’s a very clever man. I do think that he has got an impact on young men.

“On the other hand, except for the stuff he said like isn’t it ridiculous telling people to go to football and not have a drink? That’s him knowing what he’s doing.”
Jo Philips added: “The three of us as women, we know too many men who’ve gone, oh, for goodness sake. It’s a bit of banter.
“Get over yourself. And I think that’s so unhealthy.”
Muldoon also said: “I don’t think that’s particularly unhealthy as such. But what I do think is that things like the way that we vote in this country should be taught in schools.

“Because they have to know. They have to buy into what they have to do.
“I’m not in agreement of lowering the voting age down to 16 because I don’t believe a 16 year old has got a formed mind enough to make that pivotal decision that will affect the next four years of their lives and our lives as members of this society.
“However, I think it’s wonderful that he’s getting them engaged.”
Farage was elected as an MP on his eighth attempt after winning in Clacton on July 4.
The Brexit stalwart, who received 46.2 per cent of the vote, was joined by three other successful Reform UK candidates.
The 60-year-old initially opted not to stand in the 2024 General Election after claiming a six-week campaign made it all but impossible to enter Parliament.
