RISHI SUNAK is facing a devastating fight on two political fronts as Tory anxiety mounts over a surge in the polls by the right-wing Reform Party.

Party leader Richard Tice pledged today that Reform will stand in every constituency in the next general election, a move that could imperil many Tory seats.

And he told a press conference that Mr Farage — last sighted in a jungle on a TV reality show — was considering staging a comeback, a move that would likely turbocharge Reform’s prospects.
