Reform UK's senior figures have expressed views on women and families.

Several senior Reform UK figures have publicly advocated traditional family norms and commented on abortion and fertility, and the party has proposed scrapping the Equality Act while reversing a pledge on the two‑child benefit cap.

Reform UK’s senior figures have made a range of public comments about women, families and fertility that have attracted attention and criticism. Some individuals associated with the party have argued for heterosexual marriage as a social ideal and spoken about perceived links between family structure and child outcomes. Other remarks have concerned abortion laws, fertility policy and proposals aimed at encouraging higher birth rates. The party has also announced policy moves, including a plan to scrap the Equality Act, and has publicly reversed a previous pledge on the two‑child benefit cap. Key reported points: - Matt Goodwin has been reported as saying young girls should be given a “biological reality” check and previously suggested taxing people without children, remarks that resurfaced during a by-election campaign. - Dr James Orr is reported to have said children are best off with a mother and a father and described the UK’s abortion rules as “extreme” in public remarks at a conference; he has also argued for pro‑natalist policy to narrow a fertility gap. - Nigel Farage and Andrew Kruger have been quoted expressing views that favour heterosexual marriage as more stable; Farage has criticised the current abortion time limit and Kruger later clarified he supports the 1967 Abortion Act while saying he does not wish to dictate individual choices. - The party announced a plan to scrap the Equality Act (announced by Suella Braverman) and earlier this year abandoned a pledge to lift the two‑child benefit cap, prompting internal disagreement and external concerns about effects on protections for pregnant women and mothers. Summary: The reported remarks and policy proposals have drawn public criticism and local protests in some cases. Undetermined at this time.
