I think some of those were pretty good.
The issues with Farage's misinformation is, is it just lots of unfortunate errors, or is there to deceive?
Here's some incorrect statements he's made:
Quote:
During his show on GB News, former UKIP and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage was discussing renewable energy and claimed that during September there was a three week period when renewables accounted for between just 2% and 3% of our electricity. A reader asked us to look into whether this was true.
It isn’t.

In his interview with the BBC’s Andrew Neil, the Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage did say: “the Political Declaration, people say it’s not legally binding; actually it is. Because the Treaty, if it’s ratified, Article 184 makes absolutely clear that what is written in the Political Declaration is legally binding.”
This is not correct.

Farage: According to the ONS figures, London, Manchester and Birmingham are now all minority white cities.
This claim does not factor in people who identified as white but not white British, and so is not true for either London or Manchester. It is accurate for Birmingham, where 48.6% identified as white.
