Reform UK councillor accused of likening volunteer to Nazi collaborator over asylum seeker English lessons

A 78-year-old volunteer in Essex claims a Reform UK councillor, Carl Johnson, told her she was 'facilitating the invasion' and compared her to a Nazi collaborator for teaching English to asylum seekers. The incident highlights rising anti-immigrant rhetoric within UK local politics, though the claim is unverified and the councillor's response is not yet reported. It matters as it signals potential mainstreaming of inflammatory language in a politically sensitive area.
