Farage is asked about another two of his MEPs, who made the same pro-Russia statements that Nathan Gill has now pled guilty to being bribed to make.
"Opinions are opinions."
Farage's defence seems to be that they arrived at those views independently and it has nowt to do with him.

Amazing story in The Times. Reform UK failed to pay VAT to HMRC on its sales (tickets, merchandise). About £400k in all.
Not tax avoidance. Not tax evasion. They just didn't realise when you sell stuff you have to charge VAT.

"With all the rhetoric that you bring in, I have to say to my sons, please don't go there. Please don't do this."
"I blame you for that."
