Zia Yusuf dramatically resigned as Reform UK's chairman tonight as the Nigel Farage-led party descended into fresh chaos.
The multi-millionaire businessman said he no longer believed that working for Reform to win power at the next general election was 'a good use of my time'.
His shock departure came just hours after he hit out at one of Reform's own MP's for a 'dumb' question in the House of Commons about banning the burqa.
He publicly questioned why Sarah Pochin, Reform's recently-elected MP for Runcorn and Helsby, had challenged the Prime Minister about the issue on Wednesday.
There were also reports that Mr Yusuf had recently been 'sidelined' within Reform, including claims that some of his responsibilities had been passed elsewhere.
