Oppose Employment Rights Bill provisions
Employment
Argue the Employment Rights Bill's day-one rights and contract restrictions will harm small businesses and reduce hiring flexibility.
Vocal opposition raised in Parliament; with a small number of seats, Reform has limited ability to alter the bill's progress.
Target: Bill opposed/amended
Scrap Net Zero targets
Energy
Abandon the legally binding Net Zero by 2050 commitment, arguing it raises energy costs without proportionate benefit.
Net Zero remains UK law under the Climate Change Act; Reform has campaigned against it but has not secured a parliamentary route to repeal it.
Target: Net Zero target scrapped
Increase defence spending to 3% of GDP
Defence
Raise UK defence spending above NATO's 2% baseline to strengthen military capability.
Government defence spending plans have moved toward increased commitments amid NATO pressure, though not specifically attributable to Reform's campaigning.
Target: 3% of GDP on defence
Freeze non-essential immigration
Immigration
Call for an immediate freeze on non-essential immigration until housing, NHS and public service pressures ease.
Position maintained in Parliament and media; as a minor party, Reform has no route to implement this directly without government support.
Target: Net migration frozen
Leave the European Convention on Human Rights
Immigration
Withdraw the UK from the ECHR, arguing it blocks deportations and undermines sovereign control of immigration and justice policy.
Continues to be raised in Parliament and media as a campaign position. No government has committed to withdrawal.
Target: ECHR withdrawal
Abolish the BBC licence fee
Media
End the mandatory TV licence fee funding model for the BBC, moving to a subscription or alternative model.
Government has launched a licence fee funding review, though abolition itself remains a Reform campaign position rather than confirmed policy.
Target: Licence fee abolished
Raise the income tax personal allowance to £20,000
Tax
Increase the tax-free personal allowance substantially to take lower earners out of income tax entirely.
Remains a stated policy position; no fiscal mechanism currently exists for Reform to implement this from opposition.
Target: £20,000 personal allowance
