Reform MP Sarah Pohcin was secretly recorded by ITV saying the party has a “male issue.”
In footage captured by ITV for an undercover investigation, Undercover: A Year in Reform, the Runcorn and Helsby MP says her party “excludes you if you’re a woman.”
Speaking to an undercover reporter acting as a press officer at Reform, Pochin says the party “so needs women press officers.”
She then labels Reform colleagues as “f***ing chauvinistic,” continuing: “I go out on all the shows to go ‘Oh no, it’s lovely, they’re all so welcoming.’ S***.”

When she’s asked what the issue is, Pochin replies: “Well, they just exclude you if you’re a woman.”
“There’s a bit of a male issue going on,” she added.
The footage is the latest revelation published from the ITV investigation, which is due to be broadcast on Sunday night at 10:20pm.
Earlier this week, footage shared by ITV revealed Reform councillors making racist and sexually aggressive comments.
A separate video released by ITV on Thursday evening shows Reform leader Nigel Farage talking with senior party officials about accusations of racism against party figures.
Officials are captured telling Farage they have to “defend the indefensible” and explain to him how he would be “protecting” a Reform candidate from being sacked.
Addressing accusations of racism from Reform candidate Chris Parry against Labour MP David Lammy, Farage pushes back against calls from head of communications Chris Sumner to sack Parry.
The Reform leader says Parry “must apologise to Lammy.”
“He must do it and move on … Tell him that from me,” Farage said, to which Sumner said: “You’re protecting him.”
To laughter, Farage replied: “It’s showing a bit of … bit of sorrow. Look, ‘I’m sorry’ is probably a good thing to hear. Just take the fucking deal. Trouble is he’s a rear admiral. That’s the problem.”
In a statement to ITV, Reform said: “Not all individuals covertly recorded by ITV are members of Reform UK. Where members, activists and councillors have clearly behaved inappropriately, investigations have commenced. In some cases, there have been suspensions and due process must be followed.
“Reform UK has improved and prioritised its vetting procedures, but from time to time, a handful of individuals who do not share our values will initially make it through vetting. This is the same for all organisations.
“There is no room for racism in Reform UK. We always respect due process of investigations and whilst these are ongoing it would not be appropriate to comment on individual cases.”
