His opportunism is bad enough.
But never forget that this is the same Nigel Farage who allegedly made hissing noises and whispered "Hitler was right" to a Jewish contemporary at school.
Things he has NEVER apologised for.

A reminder that the man who tackled one of the gunmen in an attempt to save lives was Ahmed Al Ahmed.
This was an anti-semitic terror attack. It is not an excuse for the likes of Farage to stoke more division. It's exactly why we need less of it.

Fraser Nelson is the latest Farage apologist to dismiss the racism allegations against him, saying that there's never been any evidence of him ever being racist as an adult.

Every horror we're seeing in Trump's America will take root in the UK if Farage becomes PM. From racist oppression to blatant corruption to anti-vaxxing to Christian nationalism to support for Russia to hostility towards on Europe ... It will all be used by Farage to divide and rule us.

Just so we're clear, one incident of alleged anti-semitism by a musician = a major national scandal that should be roundly condemned.
Multiple incidents of alleged anti-semitism from the man leading the race to run the country = a load of nothing that should be completely ignored

Please remember this next time you hear Nigel Farage and Reform say we must leave the ECHR to control our borders
🚨 “Can I tell you how many times in the last 45 years the European Court of Human Rights has ruled against the UK when it comes to deporting people from this country - only 13 times - in 45 years”

The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.
