Kent County Council to be subject of Reform’s first Reform to begin Musk-style audits of councils

Zia Yusuf, chairman of Reform UK, during a news conference in London, UK, on Tuesday, May 27, 2025.

But Antony Hook, the Liberal Democrat opposition leader on Kent County Council, questioned the need for a team of outside auditors.

He told BBC Radio Kent: “We have at KCC a governance and audit committee, that was due to have its first meeting since the election next week.

“Reform have cancelled it.

“The health and scrutiny committee was meant to meet, Reform have cancelled it. Reform have cancelled most of the committee meetings for this week or next week, without any explanation.

“They haven’t even named who their nominees are to chair these important committees are.

“If Reform were serious about making the council work well they would be getting their councillors to do this job, not bringing in unnamed anonymous people who haven’t been elected.”
