"You two were just having a conversation." On Monday's Jeremy Vine, the presenter asked his guests to repeat on air what they had said in the ad break. Asked about Nigel Farage at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday, commentator Marina Purkiss said it was "funny to see him there, given that his side lost". George Finch, Reform UK's leader of Warwickshire County Council, says he asked her how come "the vast majority of the veteran population vote Reform". She said the people who fought that war fought fascism and built the European Convention on Human Rights. He said: "We don't have fascism on the march in Warwickshire." Remembrance belongs to everyone. The argument about who honours it, and how, is now part of politics too. Where should the line be between Remembrance and party politics? 👇 The clip is one continuous excerpt and stops before the segment ends.
