Brexit politicians as target: Murder case Widdecombe: Was an attack on Farage also planned?
In July, a 28-year-old was charged with murder in the case of the killed Brexit politician Ann Widdecombe. Investigators are now establishing a connection to possible further attack plans.
A 28-year-old British man is to be charged with planning a terrorist attack against Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, in addition to the murder of Ann Widdecombe, a prominent Brexit supporter. The suspect will appear in court in London on October 7, facing charges of preparing terrorist acts between May 31, 2024, and July 8, 2026.
The Crown Prosecution Service said there is sufficient evidence to bring the charges, following an investigation by the UK's counter-terrorism police. Ann Widdecombe, 78, was found dead at her home in Devon with severe injuries, sparking a murder investigation.
