Reform UK pledges £100m 24/7 MP security for all lawmakers
Reform UK proposes a £100m plan to provide round-the-clock security for all 650 MPs and extend protection to former politicians, prompted by Ann Widdecombe's death. The policy, announced by home affairs spokesman Zia Yusuf, would be overseen by the home secretary if Reform wins power, with security resources allocated based on threat assessments and existing parliamentary funding reviewed by Ipsa and the Commons.
