Farage accuses female journalist of playing 'silly little game' after she asks about Reform's likely choice for chancellor

Q: [From the Telegraph's Camilla Tominey] You say you expect an election in 2027. The fact that Zia Yusuf is here - does that mean he is your preferred candidate for chancellor, not Richard Tice?

Farage says that is a good try. He tells Tominey that is it no wonder she is so well paid. But he goes on: "I'm just not playing your silly little game."

Farage has got form for patronising female journalists. Recently, being interviewed by Bloomberg's Mishal Husain, he called her "love" as she asked him difficult questions about his stance on Russia.

Does Nigel Farage have a woman problem?

What, specifically, are the limits *today*? And what is the possibility it will be the same tomorrow?

At least 13 hospitals and health facilities hit during attacks on Iran, WHO says Global health body investigating reports that four medics are among the 1,230 people killed in Iran since start of war

The world health organization has found that the US and Israel have bombed several health facilities in Iran.

We have also bombed two ADDITIONAL schools this week, not counting the girls schools earlier. Making that 4 in total.

We are the bad guys in this illegal war.

In the last three days, the Brexiters have been losing their shit because "MPs were dancing while the war in Iran was going on."

Here's Farage yesterday.

Justice Department publishes documents with sexual assault allegations against Trump The department shared FBI documents outlining allegations involving Trump.

These allegations of child rape are horrific. They back up the story of Jane Doe, another 13-year-old victim.
The American courts, police, politicians and media know that the President of the United States is an accused child rapist and abuser.
Horrifying.

I know I am an adult. I can say what I want. But the one time I posted (on Twitter back in the day) about my parents' displacement in 1947 and somehow my late father knew and asked me about it was instructive.

Making pizza tomorrow. Just bought this in Lidl. It's Β£3.49 a block so more expensive than mozzarella but when you consider a decent pizza can cost Β£8 it's worth it

WA State Rep candidate Katy Cornell says you must obey her and disown your heretical and non-fundamentalist Christian friends or you'll be led into witchcraft, New Age beliefs, drugs, and "utter darkness." She says what I believe is dangerous and it will contaminate her congregants.

Lord Glasman saying we should dictate to Iran to return to constitutional monarchy is wild - that is for them to decide. How has this clearly clueless chap got influence over the current government is baffling. (FWIW: why can't the Iranians have a constitutional democracy? Or some other model?)

'Listen love!' - Nigel Farage slammed for condescending language to Mishal Husain "If you’re a woman, you’ve just been shown how Reform will treat your dignity and rights."

'Just write some silly story' - Farage insults female FT reporter after she asks difficult questions

Anna Gross from the Financial Times asked a two-part question at the press conference: about whether Reform UK would create an Ice-style migrant deportation unit, and about all five of the people on the platform having been educated at private schools.

Nigel Farage responded. He said sarcastically that he "loved" the FT; the day after the Mandelson story broke, its front page carried a story about a Reform councillor in Kent, he said. He said there was no point addressing Gross's question. "Just write some silly story," he told Gross.

Farage has got form for patronising and insulting female journalists in this way.

(As well as patronising, Farage's response was unfair. The FT pursued the story about Mandelson's links with Jeffrey Epstein more aggressively than almost any other UK news organisation.)
