I find it fascinating that this 'reporter' takes it on herself to personally oppose Farage as opposed to interviewing him. Her whining is like that of Rachel Maddow on MSNBC here in the US, the chief difference being that she's probably still more intelligent than Maddow. I thought Nigel handled her very well and kept his cool, making her attacks backfire so that she looked like the lefty fool that she is.
It was gutsy for him to loosely compare his movement to the Tea Party here. While there are differences between the two, I would like to believe that the quest for liberty and national sovereignty transcends countries. And if the EuroSkeptic movement and the success of Nigel and UKIP are any indications, my belief is not misplaced. Down with the EU from the USA and keep up the good work! The UK should be governed by the People of the UK, not bureaucrats in Wash. D.C, Brussels, or anywhere else.
i think gerard batten should have been leader for a while, working class down to earth guy who stands up to the eurocrats and calls them traitors to there faces
I read some of the comments before the vid had loaded, and I thought, they must be exaggerating about the reporter, surely? Sorry about that guys - it seems you weren't. How biased did she come across? Has Nigel run her cat over or something?
Impartiality in journalism? Not with the BBC apparently ...
@whiskasalpha "should have died". wishing death upon someone is the most undemocractic and intolerant thing you can do. He's just a businessman playing his hand at politics. ? I despise many politicians but NEVER have I ever wished them to die. Please express your disgust in a more pleasant manner. I'm finding it really hard to believe some people can be so evil.
Excuse me... He is right wing!!"!! His view are not only disgusting they are.. IMORAL! even in a democracy there are limits. Farage is vile and and his followers are likewise. If he dies dies then lets raise a cheer!
Raise a cheer for the death of Thatcher, may she die in so much pain that she screams in terror so that we may all hear and raise a glass a glass of red to her demise.. When Ukip goes so may we do so again..
@Ressenatior Absolutely everything from immigration policy to banking. BNP are National Socialists and Nationalists in general. They view Britain in terms of ethnicity. UKIP are Ultra Conservatives. They view Britain in civic terms and look after the economic interests of the country. Lots lots more to say. If you're actually interested do a bit of research comparing the parties.
Why do they reference the BNP alongside the UKIP??? So biased...and they are not a single issue party!! Also who cares how many flags are sold in one store...it was a rubbish thing. Out of all the parties UKIP is the only one who deserves my vote.
I would call you a pedant but i am guessing that you would not understand and or confuse it with something completely different.. !-)
As for getting out of the UK.. How typical of you and your oh so sad little band of " patriots". Oh and i note from your profile, Country: USA.. Please do not dare start critising my spelling because you are living in a civilisation that spells colour... COLOR
@whiskasalpha I don't know who your talking to but Colour was spelt with the fifth vowel for centuries since before we colonised the Americas and put all of you where you stand today, we gave you your politics, your technology and you dialect.
If you've bastardised it that's because your a young and reckless country.
I despise the BBC more as each day passes, plus that Woman needs to be corrected, UKIP in the first third have raised 100k more than the Lib Dems, hardly a party with struggling coffers. And how the leadership election was a mess I have no idea, I would have a go at them if I went on there, I can't stand their bias.
@whiskasalpha No. There is a huge difference between fascism and conservatism. I suggest you learn the difference. Please tell me which policies of UKIP you think are fascist?
@whiskasalpha One of my dad's best friends is UKIP and he has to be the nicest jolly guy I've ever met. I can assure you most the southern UKIP candidates, I've never met any northern ones so can't comment are decent jolly blokes with the itnerests of the people at heart. I ask again please find me some policies of UKIp which are fascist.
I've investigated a lot about the BNP and I can assure you UKIP are completely different.
As a student of the use of language to control and ridicule, its clear to see Anand's tactics. She may be smart, but she's just another establishment stooge.
Here, Anita Anand does all she can to come across as an unbearable wanker, and succeeds with flying colours. The BBC marketing coup was to use her to make the programme unbearable to watch. Conversely, Farage does well.
One of the things that I like about Farage is that he's one step ahead of these interviewers with an answer to every question that they ask. No matter how many times they try to trick him up, he always responds in an intelligent manner.
@Ooftyman By no means the same, I am afraid. You do not have a state-run media funded entirely by the tax-payer, and at least you have Fox (for all its many flaws) to offer a counter-weight. We have no such opportunity.
"single issue party". i'm tired of hearing that. ukip, make it absolutely clear to the public that you're not. sure euroscepticism is becoming more and more convincing as the euro drags down more countries, but the people who only take politics spoonfed (the majority), need the reassurance that you won't just sit clueless for 4 1/2 years after leaving the eu.
WoW Go Nigel, Malden and Kingston. Always have had Ed Davey, after the LibDems betrayed us his support has collapsed plus I my parents are classic voters: We love Nigel but we can't vote for you because we'll get the Tories in if we don't vote LibDem.
Well they did vote Lib Dem we got Lib Dem and still ended up with Torie.
Why we have government and Parliamentary elections linked is beyond me but hey ho. as you said. One day :)
The BBC is institutionally biased. It is consistently supportive of the European Union, mass immigration, nationalisation and all the other sacred cows of left wing politics.
bbc the only news today, was some wedding? nothing else happend apart from some muslims stealing more british taxpayers money because they had been in some us prison wtf why was this kept in the dark? todays mp`s are 100% nazis.
It really is a pity that we don't have a channel that broadcasts footage of muslims chanting in the streets of British cities that they will come into our homes and kill us if we do not convert to islam, or burning poppies and abusing our soldiers at a time of remembrance, or extracts from Middle Eastern current affairs programmes openly discussing the necessity of Turkish EU membership as a key to 'taking over' Europe. UKIP membership would swell exponentially.
@herringfly Dude, we illegally invaded muslim countries and killed millions of people: they have every right to be pissed off, and every right to express this however they see fit (providing they don't cause harm or loss).
First: we have not killed millions of muslims. Second: no, they do not actually have the right to express their discontent with their host country "however they see fit". If I were to strap on my kilt and stand on a London street bellowing through a megaphone that I intended to kill anyone not prepared to convert to the Free Presbyterian Church, my collar would be felt sharpish - and any of us who tried the likes in a muslim state would die.
Firstly, your maths requires a lot of attention. 'Millions' have not been killed.
Secondly, though I don't agree with the invasion of Iraq or Afghanistan, Saddam Hussein was deposed, ending a brutal regime of oppression which has caused nothing but misery.
Thirdly, don't forget war is a two-way thing. Iraqis and Afghans have been killing British troops. But you don't see anyone standing in the middle of Baghdad shouting 'Death to the Islamic infidels!' do you?
@CosmicCannonBall it's all the same shit. russia kept the concentration camps going after they gained the ground against germany in WWII. it wasn't about ideology. it was the same ideology of slaughtering the 'rich', state ownership of everything and dictatorship. it was 2 psychopaths hitler and stalin fighting over who shall become the perfect and godly overlord of the people.
Someone should tell that plundering socialist woman where the industrial revolution began. Still at least she didn't imply that UKIP are a party of naziterroristpedofileswhowanttokillallforeignersandpoorpeople. No doubt she'll wheel that one out at the next election.
@voicesofsanity No, they were going easy here. This is what he and all MPs expect, this is a medium frying and they know Farage can handle it - and he did. He's gold Farage and this is what proves it, he's no quitter.
3:17 - Don't let women/people like this de-motivate you Nigel! That's the difference between success and failure! Getting past these pricks that try to pick at your confidence and will-power! Soldier on, brother, soldier on!

Unfortunately this is quite common for BBC's political and news sector.
They are openly biased (they admitted to it) and regularly attack and provoke guests (often subtly) who they don't agree with.
I have come to the conclusion though that there is no such thing as a true unbiased news channel.
For that, you would need robots. If there is emotion, there is opinion, and if there is opinion, there is bias.
