Multiple instances now of journalists that Nigel Farage doesn’t like being refused entry to Reform UK’s national conference in Birmingham, England.

A spokesman for villagers said “we don’t want anything to do with people like him”

I see Labour Peer Maurice Glasman has been venting his anti-refugee, nationalist views on LBC … “ deploy Royal Navy in the Channel, use drones.., send refugee boats back to France. Worry about the fallout later… “ Interview is on the LBC YouTube channel…
