Leicestershire’s policing boss Rupert Matthews joins Reform UK

Leicestershire and Rutland police and criminal commissioner escaped from the conservatives to reform England.

Rupert Matthews has a position since 2021 and served as MEP for East Midlands for Tories between 2017-2019.

Speaking at a press conference with the British leader Nigel Farage, the “WoKeness’s dark heart” should be cut from the criminal justice system.

“The liberal elite, who served our country every time every time, realized that their days were almost over.” He said.

“Whether conservative or labor governments, everyone knows that our politicians have failed all of us. They disappointed this country. They disappointed the British people.

Matthews was re -selected as a PCC in May 2024 and defeating Rory Palmer from Labor 860 votes.

“Two times he was chosen as a conservative, but today he met us as our first police and crime commissioner,” Farage said to the conference repeatedly on Monday.

“Welcome to the ship.”
