Why don't British journalists ever challenge Labour or Reform with any of this? Are they all too pally?

Farage is merely using the Trump playbook (Project 2025). No-one believed he would be as bad as his campaign rhetoric made out, other than Democrats who tried to sound the warning (Kamala Harris got it all out there at the debate). An now we face the same malaise amongst the UK public/voters

Farage has just proven Reform is not about 'tackling illegal immigration'. Reform is just the politics of racism. Migrants with indefinite leave to remain in the UK are by definition in the UK legally.
