Hopefully, as 62% aren't voting for the Brexit Party/UKIP.

Exactly. Parliament needs to remind the BBC that its initials do not stand for Brexit Broadcasting Corporation and to give some times to other politicians apart from Nigel Farage!

Speaking of which, if you didn’t see Farage on Andrew Marr this morning check it out, BBC state broadcaster, supposed to be impartial?

Even Andrew Marr looked embarrassed at the line of questions his pay masters had prepared for him.

He is meant to challenge politicians and ask difficult questions. People slagging off Marr because he was mean to a politician is the story every week, just like when Labour supporters get angry that he does it to Labour politicians.

Watch again, it's Farage just trying to avoid answering legitimate questions on climate changes, gun control Putin etc. Seems to think accountability applies to everyone but him! Marr's frankly embarrassed that Farage is in the studio again.

Gun control, climate change, whether he admired Putin or not.....all very relevant to the impending European elections.

I was half expecting a school bully charge to get slipped in, it wasn't an interview about the brexit party it was a piss poor attempt to discredit Farage , wonder how long the bbc would last if the brexit party got into no10?

They challenge Labour on antisemitism too when they would rather talk about domestic policy. The interviewer has an opportunity to put forward a bunch of questions so they take it.

Correct, more so given the lack of a manifesto.

All you're doing is sneering at Farage. You can do better than that. He stands for the Brexit Party and his current focus is on the EU elections and then sticking it to the EU as he has always done.

Future moves by Farage are for another day (and another thread).

Eh, I'm pointing out that he is deliberately avoiding legitimate questions. If you feel politicians warrant a free pass on difficult questions then fair enough but I don't share that view.

He's ignoring irrelevant questions set by the anti-Brexit leftie BBC.

Farage is a great man - he almost single handedly brought about the Referendum. However, I remain a paid up member of the Conservative Party.

If abolishing the BBC was in their manifesto I'd vote for them

Except that he didn't. He protested about the line of questioning, sure, but he did answer them.

A manifesto? We know what the Brexit Party stands for, and as we have already discussed, MEPs have little say over the legislation that is brought forward by the EU.

We won't be in the EU for much more than five minutes after the elections, if at all.
