Do your job
And the next time you have Farage on, please ask him directly:
…what were the motivations behind this?

“People died who could have been saved. These deaths are facts that cannot be denied. And I will never forget what I saw.”
The COVID enquiry shines a light on the abject failure of the UK’s public health response - too little, too late.

Fun fact: Today is the 1 year anniversary of Farage's foreign national girlfriend Ferrari buying his house. With unexplained wealth. That should be investigated...

Did something similar with the Queen….it’s been developing for years.
No comparison. When Biden so much as tripped, it was a week-long story. When Trump has no idea where he is and drifts off mid-event— media silence.
This isn’t the first time. What’s up?!

A man with no discernable qualities, ruling over a party mired in sleaziness, a man pushing racist rhetoric for votes, and whose policies don't stand up to financial scrutiny and a man who's disliked by any socially aware person.
But enough about Starmer, here's a picture of another wanker.

Every day is a good day to point out that 92% of Reform's donations were found to come from figures and groups linked to the fossil fuel industry. @desmog.com
Nigel Farage’s Reform Party Has Accepted £2.3 Million from Fossil Fuel Interests, Climate Deniers, and Polluters Since 2019 Election
Reform UK has received more than £2.3 million from oil and gas interests, highly polluting industries, and climate science deniers since December 2019, amounting to 92 percent of the party’s donations...

Farage has given up the pretence that he barely knew Nathan Gill. He can't do otherwise, given the flood of evidence to the contrary.
Here is Gill saying he's just come from having lunch with Farage on the day that Farage resigned as UKIP leader 4 July 2016?

Reform UK’s Nathan Gill met with EU President Tajani to lobby him based on Russian Bribes.
Even then, Nigel Farage didn’t bat an eyelid.
Remarkable video. He had never shown an interest in free speech related to Ukrainian TV channels before.

This is a lie.
There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.
But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

So to summarise, this is a white politician blaming a black journalist for the racism he is now actively helping to promote, after receiving the full endorsement of his own party leader
Wow. Robert Jenrick doubles down by branding a black journalist's questions "ridiculous" and saying that the problem is not his comments, but "journalists like you who pop up and try to knock me down", adding that "this is the reason why terrorist attacks happen". ~AA
