Television presenter and ex-MEP David Bull has been named the new chairman of Reform UK, following Zia Yusuf's brief resignation and return amid a heated internal debate over burqa bans. Bull, a longtime ally of Nigel Farage and former deputy leader, brings media polish and party experience. Farage praised Yusuf for enduring the strain of professionalizing the party. As Reform eyes major political gains and pushes bold policies—including reindustrializing the UK and exploring crypto—Bull takes charge during one of the party's most chaotic weeks yet.

On May 19, the UK and EU signed a pivotal trade deal aimed at slashing post-Brexit barriers in food, drink, and small business exports. UK-EU trade has suffered since Brexit, with UK exports to the EU down 9% and imports down 18% since 2019. The new agreement reduces costly red tape and opens access to the EU’s £150 billion defense fund, offering a boost to UK aerospace. With U.S. tariffs on UK goods still in place, Britain is shifting focus back to the EU for stability and economic resilience.
