Susanna Reid wasn’t letting Nigel Farage off the hook – and it’s just glorious
GB News presenter and election runner-up to a dolphin, Nigel Farage, found his pronouncements weren’t met with the usual nods and awe once he stepped out of his own workplace and into the Good Morning Britain studio.
Watch how Susanna Reid responded to Farage’s willingness to team up with Boris Johnson.
Could Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson team up?@Nigel_Farage says he and Boris Johnson disagree on many things but they agree on Brexit and '2 or 3 years down the line we may have to refight this [Brexit] battle'. pic.twitter.com/aZihoL7K4v

The only way that could have been better is if Richard Madeley had kept quiet. Boris Johnson would be a huge aquisition for GB News and he’d fit right in on the channel that has already been punished for sharing misinformation.
But it’s unlikely that the highly ambitious former PM would team up with Farage’s political party Reform UK, because he likes winning elections.
Viewers enjoyed seeing farage held to account.

An absolutely shameless con man and a charlatan. If he told me it was raining outside I’d have to look out of the window to check that it wasn’t sunny.

Brexit is the magic money tree for Farage. That’s why he’ll partner with anyone who will serve his interests best.

“and you want to go into partnership with the man responsible for the failure of Brexit?”

A difference between Farage and Johnson is that, if public opinion happened to be 70-30 for single market in, say, 2029-30, and Johnson was in frontline politics then, he would not find it personally that difficult to be for a single market Brexit (perhaps rebranded) https://t.co/lgbDk4WJlU

We’ll just leave this here.
Farage seems to think there is going to be another EU referendum in “two or three years’ time”. If he’s right, let’s be prepared to make the case for Rejoin:pic.twitter.com/4WmWw26QLF
