Reform UK leader Nigel Farage hot-footed it into the venue hosting tonight’s television leaders’ debate ahead of the General Election, amid shouts from pro-refugee protestors outside the studio.
Mr Farage’s appearance at BBC Question Time Leaders’ Special at the Midlands Arts Centre in Birmingham comes just hours after Prime Minister Rishi Sunak lashed out at him after a Reform UK activist was caught on camera branding the Prime Minister a ‘f***ing p***’.
Hosted by Fiona Bruce, Mr Farage, wearing a smart blue suit and dot-patterned tie, appeared alongside Green Party Co-Leader Adrian Ramsay for tonight’s show.
He unsurprisingly came under pressure to answer questions from the audience over the conduct of campaigners in Clacton who were recorded making a catalogue of vile racist and homophobic remarks.
