James Orr: Reform's Cambridge Kingmaker
Adrian Goldberg highlights a brilliant Byline Times investigation by Nafeez Ahmed and Peter Jukes which exposes the links between Cambridge University, Reform UK and the Trump-supporting US tech billionaire Peter Thiel… The individual who connects all three is James Orr – who is both an associate professor of Divinity at Cambridge AND Head of Policy at Reform. He’s been described as Nigel Farage’s kingmaker. Orr runs a postgraduate compound in Cambridge , which has hosted various controversial figures including Peter Thiel himself, his protégé, US vice-president JD Vance, Dutch anti-Islam campaigner Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Canadian anti woke activist Jordan Peterson. Nafeez and Peter raise serious questions about student safeguarding, the funding of Orr’s operation and, ultimately, foreign influence in UK politics.
