Richard Tice, Deputy Leader of Reform UK, has made public statements rejecting established climate science, according to recent media reports.

The Bloomberg report indicates that Tice 'fundamentally' rejects climate science, though specific details of his statements or the context in which they were made were not provided in the available coverage.

Tice's position represents a departure from the scientific consensus on climate change, which holds that human activities are the primary driver of current global warming trends. The scientific community has reached broad agreement on this conclusion through decades of research and peer-reviewed studies.

Reform UK, formerly known as the Brexit Party, was founded by Nigel Farage and has positioned itself as an alternative to the Conservative Party on various policy issues. The party has generally advocated for reduced government intervention and skepticism toward certain environmental regulations.

The statements come amid ongoing political debates in the UK about climate policy and its economic implications. Various political parties have taken different approaches to balancing environmental goals with economic concerns, particularly regarding industrial policy and energy costs.
