The party's Chairman Zia Yusuf announced on Friday that, of the six recent council by-elections, Reform won two and came second in two.

All were with vote shares of between 27 and 45%, he added, and all were Reform's first outings in the seats.

Mr Yusuf then proclaimed: "Our campaign machine is starting to fire!"

It comes as Mr Farage's party has been ranked higher than Labour and the Tories in national polls.

Results released by Find Out Now on Wednesday suggested that Reform UK was on 29% (+2), Labour 25% (+2) and the Conservatives on 18% (-3).

It added: "Reform are two points ahead of the Conservatives, and two points behind Labour, and in what is close to a three-way tie in terms of vote share.

"Translated into seats, Labour would still be the largest party, but would be well short of a majority in the House of Commons.
