The softest interview imaginable with Nigel Farage on #BBCLauraK No pushback, no challenge, just nodding acceptance of populist rhetoric. Farage complains “We are getting poorer” Not challenged by Laura Kuenssberg on the role Brexit has played in UK economic downturn. Pathetic.

Brexit played no role in the economy downturn. It was other factors but then I’m sure you know that!! But if you think I’m wrong then I can’t wait to hear your explanation for why Germany, France, Austria and other EU countries are all getting Poorer? Now what could be the common denominator? because it isn’t Brexit!!!

@bbclaurak It’s difficult to question and pushback when the answers to questions are correct. That’s the point.

@bbclaurak It's awfully fashionable to say Kuenssberg should be replaced by Victoria Derbyshire, but she should.

@bbclaurak BREXIT made the country poorer. Young people cannot afford a house because of the wealthy inflating prices. NOT because of migrants! #FarageRiots

@bbclaurak This must be said. #BBCLaurak ! You are a disgrace to serious journalism. How you could sit there, nodding along , presumably complicit in Farage’s bullshit is an affront to the public. Lies , slander and misinformation. How aren’t you ashamed ?

Left: Nigel Farage, "Reform UK is now the most trusted party on the economy" Right: Nigel Farage, "Not only would we be far better off (with Brexit), we'd be a happier place.. The worst case scenario economically is better than where we are today.. Brexit has failed.. We're getting poorer.. We're more uncompetitive outside the EU.. Big picture, we're in decline, getting poorer" Clip ends with Nathan Gill endorsing Nigel Farage, that's the same Nathan Gill sat in prison for taking Russian bribes to talk down the EU and support Brexit Nigel Farage's life work has been Brexit, the thing which makes the UK £90 billion a year poorer If you want even more tax rises and more spending cuts, sure, go ahead, vote Reform UK 👍
