The claim

Fact check: Ofcom’s rules on party broadcast time unchanged since at least 2017

Original publisher’s rating

Ofcom’s rules on the amount of air time afforded to each political party in an election period say “broadcasters must take into account evidence of past electoral support and/or current support”. Reform UK has not previously been represented in a General Election. The section of Ofcom’s rules on how much coverage parties should receive has not been updated since at least 2017.
