9:46Now PlayingFormer Reform UK Deputy Leader Ben Habib told LBC that Nigel Farage is a 'coward', and that he is 'incapable of introspection', saying Reform UK is a 'Nigel Farage cult'.
It comes after Zia Yusuf resigned as chairman of the party, saying working to get the party elected is no longer 'a good use of my time', after a row over a 'burqa ban'.
While Reform has seen significant gains in national polls since last year's general election, it has suffered from infighting which culminated in MP for Great Yarmouth Rupert Lowe being expelled from the party.
Ben Habib has now told LBC's Ben Kentish that party leader Nigel Farage is 'incapable of reflecting' on why his party has been plagued by internal rows, agreeing that the MP for Clacton is a 'coward'.
