Nigel Farage has admitted he got caught up in misinformation circulating from influencers including Andrew Tate in the wake of the Southport attack.
Speaking exclusively with Tom Swarbrick at Drive, the Reform UK leader denied saying the police lied about whether the Southport attacker was known to them, but insisted the public "weren't told the truth". Farage took to X in the hours after the attack, which killed three young girls, to reference 'sources" that said the attacker was an immigrant who had crossed the channel in a boat.
It follows former counter-terrorism police chief, Neil Basu, saying Farage had helped incite violence that broke out in the wake of the Southport attack.Citing sources including controversial influencer Andrew Tate, the Reform UK leader told rioters to stop, adding: “I condemn all acts of political violence”.“I have never been involved in street protest, I have never been involved in violence,” Farage said.
