Re: Reform UK's chronicles
Looks like Remain's leader is having a hard time of it from the other political parties over Ukraine. This seems to be the party's weak point.
Quote:
To loud cheers from MPs, Mr Starmer replied: "The mineral deal is not enough on its own. Can I just remind him that Russia is the aggressor, Zelensky is a war leader whose country has been invaded and we should all be supporting him and not fawning over Putin."
Mr Farage told LBC he wouldn't expect a guest "to be rude to me in my own home". Asked if the pair bullied President Zelensky, he said: "I think President Zelensky was very unwise to tell the Americans what would happen to them if they didn't back him. I think it was unwise. Yeah, sure, Vance and Trump bit back. But I think in diplomatic terms, I think Zelensky played it very badly."
Shadow Foreign Secretary Priti Patel said: “Nigel Farage is completely wrong. President Zelenskyy is a hero, who has stood up to Putin's aggression, and led his country's defence against their barbaric and illegal invasion over the last 3 years - and it is troubling to not hear the Leader of Reform say that.
"For Nigel Farage to sit there pointing the finger at Zelenskyy is both morally wrong and diplomatically counterproductive. At this uncertain and dangerous time, one would hope that MPs of all stripes would be putting our national interest first, rather than playing politics."
Ed Davey, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, said: "Nigel Farage is once again showing his true colours as Trump's own spokesman here in Britain. Zelensky showed courage and integrity in that room - in stark contrast to Farage’s cowardly approach of licking Trump’s boots."
