Ellie Costello Calls Out Priti Patel’s Nazi Comparison

On 26 January 2026, Tory MP Ellie Costello took to London‑based GB News to confront former Home Secretary Priti Patel after Patel claimed that Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party resembled National Socialists. In a live clip, Costello asked Patel whether such a comparison was "acceptable language," prompting a heated exchange with Matt Vickers, the Conservative MP representing Great Grimsby. Patel’s remark, made the previous day on GB News, drew criticism from opposition figures. Costello’s challenge highlighted growing tensions over the use of Nazi terminology in contemporary politics. The incident prompted a social‑media backlash and renewed calls for accountability from parliamentary leaders. The debate unfolded ahead of the upcoming general election scheduled for 2025.
