Reform MP Rupert Lowe added: “Reform six points clear. We are going to win the next election, and we are going to restore Britain.”
It comes as Reform, which returned five MPs in July’s general election but came second in 98 constituencies, has led a series of national opinion polls.
Reform leader Mr Farage earlier this month declared there is a “good chance” he could be Britain’s next prime minister.
Speaking to the Daily Express at a rally in Essex, he said: “Some great polls, amazing polls, so we are the opposition.
“Can Reform win the next election? Well, the history books say no, but I just feel something remarkable is going on, something really historic, something we’ve never seen in our lifetimes.
“Probably the last time you saw a movement like this was in 1918 when Labour suddenly emerged as a massive political party and the Liberals disappeared as a party of government. There is a good chance I could be the next prime minister.”
