A Reform UK campaigner used a racial slur against Rishi Sunak and called for Channel migrants to be shot.
Canvasser Andrew Parker was filmed making the comments by an undercover reporter from Channel 4 while out in Clacton, Essex, where Reform leader Nigel Farage is standing at the General Election.

Mr Parker said of the Prime Minister: "I’ve always been a Tory voter. But what annoys me is that f****** P*** we’ve got in. What good is he? You tell me, you know. He’s just wet. F****** useless.”
The volunteer for Reform also said migrants crossing the Channel in small boats should be used as "target practice".
He said: "Army recruitment - get the young recruits there, with guns, on the f****** beach, target practice. F****** just shoot them."

The canvasser also labelled Islam a "disgusting cult", adding: "We're f****** kicking all the Muslims out of the mosques and turning them into Wetherspoons."

Don't miss... Reform could be on cusp of winning big - but Nigel Farage must do one thing [LATEST]
Giles Watling, the Tory candidate for Clacton, said: "I am disgusted by vile comments shouted by Reform thugs published by Channel 4 News.
"This is the circus I don’t want despoiling my community. Farage says he is 'shocked', but it is his 'people’s army'.
"This doesn't reflect the true nature of Clacton. We are better than this!"
Mr Farage said he was "dismayed" by the comments and that Mr Parker would no longer campaign with him.
The Reform UK leader said: "The appalling sentiments expressed by some in these exchanges bear no relation to my own views, those of the vast majority of our supporters or Reform UK policy. Some of the language used was reprehensible.
"Reform UK is a party for everybody who believes in Britain. I am proud that our supporters, candidates and national campaign team come from all backgrounds and identities.
"I would be interested to know whether Channel 4 is subjecting the grassroots volunteers of all the political parties to similar subterfuges, or whether Reform UK has been singled out for special attention.
"For instance, have they covered the grotesquely racist social media post by Labour’s candidate in Clacton who has now apparently been banished to the Midlands?
"Just one week before polling day, we will not allow this to distract us from our mission to give voters a real alternative to the establishment parties that have broken Britain.”

Mr Parker said: "I would like to make it clear that neither Nigel Farage personally or the Reform Party are aware of my personal views on immigration.
"I have never discussed immigration with either Nigel Farage or the Reform Party and that any comments made by me during those recordings are my own personal views on any subject I commented on.

"At no time before I was sent out to canvass did I discuss my personal views with any representative of the Reform Party or Nigel Farage.
"I would therefore like to apologise profusely to Nigel Farage and the Reform Party if my personal views have reflected badly on them and brought them into disrepute, as this was not my intention.
"I offered to help the Reform Party on their canvassing as I believe that they are the only party that offer the UK voter a practical solution to the illegal immigration problem that we have in the UK."
