THE Reform UK candidate is hoping for a podium finish in the Droitwich and Evesham constituency in the general election. 

Sam Bastow is standing for Reform UK in Droitwich and Evesham and whilst he admitted he could have done more campaigning, he is still hoping for a podium finish. 

Mr Bastow said: "It was my first campaign and it went better than expected. 

"It was very enjoyable and if there was another election next month I would love it. 

"I think I could have done more campaigning but I always look to see what I could have done better. 

"I was surprised at how many people said that I had their vote and I think we did well considering the timescale. 

"It doesn't matter if we get 1 vote or 50,000, we have won anyway and got the Reform name out there. 

"Obviously I will be disappointed if we lose, but I would still be happy with a medial, either first, second or third."
