an interviewer who allowed the interviewee to answer...well done.
I was going to write the same comment until I saw this 😂
No chip on the shoulder trying to project intellect and catch Nigel out for a change. Knew his place, wasn’t trying to be a hero, pulled off as decent an interview as you could get in under 5 minutes
It’s not enough to ask a question and allow the candidate to speak bollocks unchecked (not saying Nigel is).
All these people need to be challenged on their answers… but let their answers be heard first!
The complete opposite of the Biased Broadcasting Corporation.
Yeah.. would be great to see this with the other parties too
First time in a long time I've seen an interviewer for a major news network simply ask questions and then respectfully listen to the answers. Good to see!
That's why it was a terrible piece because he allowed him to say things that are categorically untrue.
@@themiddleplace He didn’t say anything untrue comrade.
@@themiddleplace Such as?
I think that critically, it's because Nigel answered the damn questions. I'm not a supporter of Reform, but at least, he answers the questions.
If you're asked Starmer or Sunak the cannabis question for example, it would have been, "[X party] has always had a strong stance on cannabis and we're really proudly to consider our record in that regard."
There is a balance of listening and have the independent ability to at least have a follow up question.
Isn't it wonderful to have a journalist who asks questions, and then listens to the answer
it sure is mate, unlike the biased BBC that pushes their own negative agenda..
Professional journalists usually challenge interviewees on their answers whereas this was just an invitation for someone to give their policy. There's a difference between the two.
@@martydav9475 yes he should be challenged, after he's finished giving each answer. Not continual interruptions like the others do.
@@martydav9475but journalists cut in halfway through an answer. Why bother asking then if you just want to hear your own voice?
Without interruption too and being condescending.
This is how you do interviews, BBC.
This is actually how POLITICIANS should do interviews!!...... ACTUALLY ANSWERING QUESTIONS!!!
what's Nigel doing trapped in the windows XP screen
He’s stuck in the early 2000s
He is kind of that, Windows XP, look old but can catch lot of people with nostalgia. But try use XP online for about 2 minutes and let me go how it goes
It looks like a shooting range to me. Maybe how he wants to deal with the immigrants?
You know he's got a shitty yellowing desktop at home in his "office" with windows vista on it
@@Jonpoo1 was a lot better then than today!
Very respectful interviewer that actually let him finish his answers
Would be nice if he actually interrogated some of the answers though. Too few interviewers do this - mostly because they don’t have the intellect for it.
Took the words out of my mouth 👍
@@Jonpoo1Not that… We just don’t feel the need for Fox News rhetoric to impact UK politics.
@@Jonpoo1
I think Mr Farage gets enough of that from the Left wing media.
@@Jonpoo1 It was clearly meant to be a short interview, so it was more important to get through a few questions rather than getting bogged down on one. In longer interviews I completely agree.
what is happening here, an itv reporter is asking genuine questions without interrupting??? 😅😂
I know, it's insane.
And more importantly getting ANSWERS 😂
Unusual
He’s right about university.
He's right about a lot of things he never delivered.
He delivered what the richer wanted: brexit.
@@zedtrekSeeing as the entire global ruling establishment didn't want Brexit, I don't know what you're talking about.
@@ty194 You easily led melt.
@@Manu-Official like what?
We got Nigel Farage being filmed on a windows XP background before GTA 6.

this is going to age like milk in the the Sun but we got Nigel Farage as an MP in the houses of Parliament before we got GTA 6
Farage on Windows XP in 4k resolution. By God the detail from the sunlight is amazing.
I was about to say the same thing!!
Isn't it amazing to hear a free-flowing interview for once?
I just saw a video of someone giving pre-prepared responses to softball questions...must be something wrong with my connection 🤔
@@Klinsmann1985 He speaks like a normal person, with very reasonable views in almost all areas (please leave your political correctness at home), while not caring about offending anyone. The rest of them just pander to the party line / what is popular. Which is also why the other politicians are so hard to believe, they're just trying to say what gets them the most votes. Starmer won't deliver, or even try to deliver half of what he is saying. You will get more wokeism / high tax / bureaucracy and complain about Labour again for 5 years.
It's refreshing to have a politician that says what he thinks. The policy line being taken is basically libertarian. Vote for real change.
@@toomaszobel why are you talking about political correctness? I just said he was clearly reading out pre-prepared answers, it was not a free flowing conversation as the original commentator said. Sorry if that touched a nerve for you
This isn’t a conversation, it’s an interview. Learn to know the difference.
@@Klinsmann1985 Isn't it terrifying. The majority of people here think that's a good interview. They're confusing objectivity with not challenging lies. Which means that a large portion of the public fundamentally don't understand how the press is at least supposed to work. I bet many of them don't know what objectivity means.
We're doomed!
Reasonable answers, plenty of clarity, no dithering, represents better opposition than Sunak.
What you see is what you get with Nigel. They try and slate him because he's seen as "too radical" for your mainstream parties- who have now been well found out they are virtually no different from each other and are very worried for their seats.
Thats why im voting Reform UK!
Been saying for ages stop charging tuition fees on medical degrees / qualification!! Well done Nige!
I was hoping for a bursary for nurses- and this surpassed everything ! This is what we need.
Agree with the policy. BUT where's the money coming from with all the other cuts to tax he wants to make?!
I feel like he's saying a lot of things to please people. Instead of being realistic with what's achievable considering our economic situation.

How many more nails can the Tory coffin take.....
T this point its just made up of nails
They are already dead, their voters are literally dyeing out fast.
The more nails, the harder it is for them to climb back out. If you ask me it needs welding shut
More like it’s totally fallen apart, and the Tory skeleton has fallen out the coffin.⚰️
ALSO we NEED 12 days more bank holidays...If farage anounced that it will be the final nail.
Probably the best interview I've seen. Actual questions! Actual answers! Just wish this was much longer.
The only question Farage should be asked is Why did you want Tony Blair to be Britains 'vaccine tsar'? Actually why did you want anybody to be a 'vaccine tsar' But back to Blair, Nigel...really?
VOTE REFORM!
Farrage has my Vote! 🇬🇧
I'm Definitely Voting Reform
Nigel is what we need!
out of the 3, this guy gives the best, clear, consistent answers, seems confident in himself and has direction.
Thats Nigel. The other "fake" politicians are terrified of someone who talks down to earth - all reforms policies are no nonsense common sense policies.
Exactly- he isn’t just spouting the same pc nonsense and avoiding the actual answers. He just says what he thinks. Breath of fresh air
Because it’s really easy to answer questions when you have no desire to tell the truth and know you will never have to implement your policies. How do I know this. He answered questions just like this during the Brexit campaign.
@@tammyjanjan2892the other 2 parties really won’t help out the country mate. We need a change, it’s worth the shot.
@tammyjanjan2892 Who implemented Brexit tammy? The fact that you blame Nigel for it, clearly shows your lack of understanding in our political system.
Good answers to all those questions..
and did he answer the hash question with a yes or a no, no, he dodged the question and gave a sit on the wall answer. Why didn't he say to the young, remember who it was that caused us to leave the EU, me me me, twas I that fecked your prospects.
@@chrisjones2224 In fact, how did it damage his prospects ? lol
@@edwardbernthal160 Prospects in EU? Like to go work there without knowledge of languages, prejudice against foreigners 10 times higher than in UK, and youth un-employment 30-50%. Great place for our young to go, no surprise that 5 million Europeans chose to stay in UK after Brexit.
@@chrisjones2224You'll get no answer to that question. I know, I've asked it many a time to many a deranged remainer.

Vote REFORM! They may not be perfect, but they're by far the best on offer.
ITV news has just gone up tenfold in my opinion, this was an excellent interview and the questions were really well put.
It wasn't an interview. It was just allowing Nigel to list all the eye-catching policies that he knows he'll never have to deliver. He should put them on the side of a bus.
@@jimjam3877 Actually, it was ITV viewers questions on what Reforms plans would be if they actually get a say in the next parliment, don't worry he won't actually be able to do anything because all of the soft headed natives in this country will just vote labour and then cry about paying more tax and not being able to see a gp.
@@jimjam3877They all get the chance to say what they want and we all get the chance to either believe them or not. Democracy is cool you know
Go reform
He's like a breath of fresh air
Yes, Nigel, at last, a politician that talks sense
Even if you don't like every one of his answers, he is honest and straight and trustworthy - the best politician we ever had and he genuinely cares about the country and the people. Not your average politician by a long way!
As a lifelong conservative voter, I'm going for Reform. I want to be proud of my country again.

If the laws around cannabis are not even forced, then why cant I purchase it from a reputable business that would create jobs and provide taxes to help the general improvement of this country, and not be considered a criminal for consuming something less damaging than current legal drugs?
I really hoped despite the conservative nature of the Reform party they would strongly consider changes to our countries cannabis laws.
I can tell which of my employees smoke weed.
They usually don't last very long in the job. It's not a hard job or anything but you do have to be awake..
We have such things in Canada. They decriminalized cannabis with government as the distributor and licensed companies producing. Now they queue outside drive in First Nations to get the stuff. It’s like cigarettes there are still people flogging it under the counter. The point is it’s decriminalized. Smoking on the job is right. Who worries where it comes from.
He shouldn't have used us as an example. It's still federally illegal here so banks won't get involved. I could be wrong but I don't think the UK has the same tension between state and federal laws which create this quasi-legal status. It's not a fully legitimate industry here yet so saying it hasn't worked doesn't make sense.
There is a vested interest in keeping it illegal, example being a Tory MP who campaigned to keep it illegal whilst her husband grows it under license for big pharma.
I used to smoke weed for 7 years. When you quit you realise that actually, weed is bad.
Should be legal, but people who are so adamant about it being legalised have a problem and are dependant on it
Nevermind Nigel, check out the mullet on the interviewer!
😂😂😂😂 never thought id see one again
He has my respect
He'll probably go Smoko with Nige afterwards.
@@NettiGaming 80's is back with a lot more than just thatcherism 🤣
Is it alive? 😂
Finally, a straight talking politician that actually answers questions.
Making promises is easy, delivering promises is something that remains to be seen from Mr Farage.
@@Manu-Official He's never been in Westminster. So he can't deliver them. If he get's into No. 10/Westminster and doesn't deliver like Boris, Cameron, May etc. then I think we can more comfortably say he doesn't deliver.
@@Manu-Official Brexit?
More like you've been conned by a snake oil salesman.
@@Manu-Official He managed to get Brexit without being elected in the UK parliament. Imagine what damage he could do if we got him into the Commons >:)
Much, much better than the BBC's Nick Robinson's pathetic attempt to mischaracterise and defame Mr Farage, Reform and their supporters.
Thankyou for letting Farage actually answer the questions, for not interrupting, for not implying he holds racist or 'far right' opinions, for not throwing up disengenuous accusations of guilt by association and allowing him to put his case forward without bias.
Vote Reform.
All the interviewer did was ask him questions and allow him to answer. How is that a good job for a journalist. Honestly, you ppl don't have a clue
Aside from the answer to drugs, I agree with what he's said.
@@malcky630 morally and culturally.
@@malcky630 black market will still exist
@@malcky630it’s cheaper or about the same in places it’s legalised
@@Unrealchamp88drink and smoking is a bigger moral blight on this country than hash ever will be, it should be legal and regulated strictly in the same way as alcohol and tobacco, nowadays I see more kids getting high in the park than drunk, that’s because getting weed is easier with our current laws
@@flyingrat492 I disagree. I've smoked cigs, cigars, weed and drunk alcohol, both sensibly and got off my face drunk.
I binned of cigs and weed coz both are boys who don't take themselves or their lives seriously.
Cigars and drinking sensibly is for men. Taking time to enjoy a cigar requires patience and isn't for boys of an undisciplined and rash disposition. Drinking for taste requires discipline and self-awareness knowing when is enough and not compromising your faculties.
Weed, by its nature, requires one to become divorced from their faculties and therefore not dependable and dependable is something every man needs to be.
Vote reform this man knows what hes talking about if you want change for this country
Britain needs Reform - Reform needs your vote.

Voting Reform UK and I'll vote the same in the next election. The other parties and the MSM have massively failed this country.
If Nigel said Reform would decriminalise cannabis use he would get a huge number of votes from it.
I think it would be a extremely huge number.
@@daviecrocket9160 Massive, Nigel's not seeing it. Oh well everyone who wants to is doing it anyway is not the answer, decriminalisation or making it legal frees up police time the courts and stops people getting criminal records for something so petty.
@@piper5985he would have my vote. I don’t even use it
@@Statueshop297 Ive not had a smoke in years but i stand by those who do. Alcohol is far more damaging than weed in every sense yet having a beer down the pub is part of Nigel's persona.

More than that, he appears to have a realistic and responsible approach to cannabis, letting people do them while i guess being strict keeping it away from kids and the workplace
@@ionlyfearphobophobiaexactly. He knows it’s not enforced and maybe it should be emphasized that it isn’t enforced. It should be hidden and kept away from kids. It’s detrimental to the mind when you’re young. It’s a hobby when you’re older.
@@Needanewcarnow I don't think it should be hidden anymore than alcohol. I wouldn't even be against parents using it slightly within reason long as it doesn't get in the way of their parenting like the difference between them having a couple drinks as opposed to getting completely drunk. Though i would also take great issue with 2nd hand smoke for kids, and that applies to tobacco too.
@@Needanewcarnow *Everyone I know who smoked it either developed Schizophrenia, or gave it up due to what they reported as feeling early signs of schizophrenia, and this was out of around 50 people* And this included around a dozen who started smoking it between the ages of 18-21. So I think regarding it being detrimental to your mind, goes beyond children, at least to the age of 21, yet does it stop being detrimental if you start later on, possibly, yet it's hard to tell because I don't really know anyone who started smoking it later in life.
@@ionlyfearphobophobia *I think due to the stench of cannabis* if it were made legal, (which I don't think it should be for other reasons, you just need much harsher sentences if you want to stop it) it should be reserved to enclosed shops that do not let said stench escape. And that would solve the issue of 2nd hand smoke for kids anyway.
Please, young folk, vote Reform UK. This is your future.
