The Maidstone councillor said he believes it was due to a strongly worded email he sent to other Reform councillors expressing his concerns about the KCC leaders. Liberal Democrat KCC deputy opposition leader Richard Streatfeild said: "Reform UK in Kent is becoming the laughing stock of the country. "The longer this goes on, the longer Kent's reputation will be dragged through the dirt." After the footage of her berating fellow councillors and using expletives was leaked to the Guardian earlier this month, Ms Kemkaran said the culprits had committed an act of "treachery". She later urged fellow councillors to back her in a letter, which called her the "best person for the job", who is leading with "courage, integrity and discipline". A spokesperson for the party previously said Ms Kemkaran had the "overwhelming support" of the group and would remain as leader.
