Nigel Farage has said he will "have a little chat" with the leader of a Reform UK council over a decision to ban contact with reporters from a local newspaper. Last week, Nottinghamshire County Council told the Â鶹Éç that Mick Barton had banned the Nottingham Post and its online arm, Nottinghamshire Live, from speaking to him and other councillors "with immediate effect". It followed a disagreement over a story the publication ran about local government reorganisation, though Barton later said the ban applied only to him personally. Farage, the national leader of Reform UK, has now said he will intervene in the row.
