- Gary Gibbon speaks to Ukip leader Nigel Farage, who's favourite photo opportunity is in the pub with a pint in his hand. The mere fact that Mr Farage is on the stage is an indication that he has led Ukip from the fringes to the mainstream of British political debate.Sign up for Snowmail, your daily preview of what is on Channel 4 News, sent straight to your inbox, here: mailing.channel4.com/public/sn...

Nigel for PM!
The problem isn't with the scrutiny that the media are giving UKIP (it's fair to ask about the apparent ever-growing ideological incoherence of UKIP). The problem is, they don't ask the same questions of the other parties. At least UKIP has one policy on which everyone in UKIP is agreed. The same can't be said of Labour or the Tories or the Lib Dems. They change their policies drastically from one moment to the next.
UKIP has never been a one policy party, it has always had many other policies as well, though leaving the EU dictatorship was obviously their main one. However, these policies were so good that the MSM ignores them and the other parties stole them.
Now I suddenly crave freedom, AND a beer.
You're already free... brexit will just make you poorer

@@desoliver9712 The UK pay 13 billion pounds to the EU and get 4 billion back of our own money which mainly goes to rich landowners Michael Heseltine gets 80 thousand pounds a year for instance , The EU kept 9 billion pounds of our money they have private planes chauffeur driven car champagne lunches , As for being free the EU law's takes priority over our national laws being governed by Bureacrats in Brussels is not being a free Independent country just my opinion of course .
I used to respect channel 4, it was rebellious and never shirked from the truth. Now it's just a hipster run politcally correct factory, if you don't agre with them you must are painted as a fool and or ignorant
rayjt17 I love this comment. SO true
Farage doesn't need Channel 4 to look like an ignorant fool. He does that very well on his own.
@@benoitbvg2888: Delivered Brexit, now has created a party which is surging in the polls and has the corrupt Rump at Westminster running for cover....some ignorant fool. Go back to sleep if you haven't anything constructive to add.
@@anghinetti Campaigned for Brexit with lies (and pretended he never said those lies), announced fake results the night of the election so he and his City buddies could make a few bucks, got his German citizenship denied for lying, created UKIP but had to distance himself from it because "they're racists", has become a joke in EU parliament where he has NEVER gotten anything done, has changed countless times what UK's relations should be with EU post-Brexit, and let's not forget that face...
If you write this comment you probably are a fool who is unable to recognize it
Nigel Farage: a Brilliant and greatest living Englishman
Such a condescending and patronising attitude from this immature 'journalist'. NF is so patient. Imagine how Margaret Thatcher would have reacted. Shameful interview.
Actually, Gary Gibbon is an excellent journalist. He is calm, thoughtful, and open-minded. Journalists have every right to hold politicians to account and ask them difficult and probing questions, so why should Nigel Farage be an exception to this?
You just don’t get it. Love or hate Nigel we don’t trust you channel 4. So the more you slag him off the more we like him. Blame yourselves for that
That is really weird, I could of sworn that as a public news broadcaster who receives funding via the TV licence that you are supposed to be impartial?. What a load of agenda driven opinions. Anybody else agree with me?
It's Channel 4 and so it isn't funded by the TV license! Actually, I found it to be a pretty balanced piece, as I do all of Gary Gibbon's excellent reports. In what sense was this full of 'agenda driven opinions'?
I think you'll find that Channel 4 receives some of the licence fee for producing news content. It was discussed a while back in a select committee meeting on the Parliament Channel. Have a look at Ofcom website. It doesn't all go the BBC. All of the MSM have their own agenda. Left, Right, Centre, Liberal, Pro Remain, Remain, London Centric. Never trust just one news channel.
Do not vote Labour, Lib'Dem and Conservative, Time for Change
change sucks
First they ignore you,
Then they try laughing at you
Then they get angry and start attacking you q
Correction - most of the people are still laughing at him
@@marcysss93 Yes they are the ones who if they are not listening to Nigel now , Will look back and wish they had listened he is the best statesman of our day . just my opinion of course 😁
@@snowyowel7961 well in my opinion not, he is only good at talking, running the country requires a lot more than this
@@marcysss93 The brexit party is the only Democratic party in our country All the others party's are a lot of Undemocratic hypocrites pathetic whinging remainers Nigel's brexit party is only weeks old and is way ahead thank goodness for Nigel Farage who is for Democracy .
Yes, those are the things that happen to you when you spout hateful self serving lies in public.
Good job the PUBS wasn't CLOSING down at the time. And stop people talking IN a GROUP.
Cmon Nigel.
TheButcherkevin remember he isn’t racist he just doesn’t like immigrants
Nigel is absolutely right especially after we've been betrayed by our government
At the beginning of this report, C4 talk about the ERM and Nigel being against it and only mention that "interest rates went down" well I remember very well what happened over the next few months after, with interest rates going through the roof. This actually happened.. Nigel predicted it.. and hundreds of thousands of people lost their homes. The British economy was in the worst state I ever remember... interesting that C4 skipped over that bit. Just another hatchet job.
NIGEL for British PM !
Great biased reporting mate. I hope you choak on your attempted slander. You have no credibility left after that story. Find another profession please.
@@noname-hb8fj a moving comment
Nigel is right, our political system should be changed! For many decades Labour & Tories have been taken turns at running our country, and just look at the mess they have made! We MUST stop this monopoly these two have, we need to allow NEW parties like Nigel's have a chance at running our country, and let's face it, he couldn't do any worse.
Absolutely
His manifesto is 'PUT NATION BEFORE SELF'.
Just channel 4 doing what it always does a hit job for the globilist elites
Isn't it amazing how media shots like channel 4 and BBC can just switch a view on someone...
You're looking at the next prime minister. People are sick of these biased videos
I’m like him, if someone lets me down or lies to me, I never speaks to them again either. I look at it this way, it’s their loss not mine because I can live without them in my life.
FATTY
The sea : 3.5% salt
This comment section:100% salt
Lots of great men started events in pubs :)
Like Hitler in Munich
NIGEL OUR NEXT PM. VOTE FOR THE BREXIT PARTY = BRINGING BACK HONESTY INTEGRITY DEMOCRACY BACK INTO POLITICS
"I won't tell u what I said but it was pretty Anglo Saxon" haha
How many pints have you drank on this campaign? I burst out laughing at the same time
If wearing sandals makes you a member of a fringe group what does purple hair and a nose ring make you ?
Red Tale LOL
A member of the ascendant fringe group with all the power and might of the armed state to back you up?
They done this because they didn't have the will to ask the people of the time, to ask if they wanted to join a European union, they were asked if they wanted to join the common market, and I will stand by this statement
Something called the "common market" was the only thing ever mentioned at the time - 1971-1972 as I recall. Not a hint, not a clue, not a whisper of anything but a trading treaty which would remove tariffs and free up movement of goods and services!
That was the first lie.
Roll on next week .
There are more 50 year old men in this comment section than Essex
Go farage..
You are too good for C4 dude
Channel 4 showing farages House... WTF
I'm sure there was no motive behind that
😅😅
Started in a pub？Kind of reminding me of some guy who died in Berlin 1945......
Remain propaganda
Na bro your just salted he is so unelectable 😂
They are determined to do him down because they are frightened of him
Who are 'They'?
The same 'they' Trump talks about?
Channel 4 = NEWS ???? HHHHAAAAaahhahahhh !!! Oh, my dear ......
All of these facts are manipulated
Totally unlike that 350 mil we send to the eu each week
So should I say 161 mil 😬😬😬
Nigel did great- Dulwich College produced many 'super stars' and 'interlectual geniouses' Roger Moor included- We owe Nigel a great debt for changing our politics and as he said '' What ever comes after has got to be better'' -Tommy and Gerard are proof !
What are the policies of these new parties.?
Small govt...So less support for the least well off. Private health insurance to replace in the NHS. Nigel has said both. He's not for me.
And continues in the pub.
They accused Nigel of being an alcoholic and then showed his house on TV. Disgusting
then they all went off to eat Caviar and drink Champagne whilst laughing at us peasants
Started in a pub and will end in the same place . He will be trying to remind people at the bar who he was and that he was really famous......really.
UKIP brand paper towels "one seat does plenty"
GO GET EM, Nigel. You've got what it takes, (ALL THE WAY TO THE WIRE).
Let's get this Man in for PM, let's see if he can walk the walk and talk the talk
C4, home of jimmy carr and snow. Enough said
Gotta love this bias report by channel 4 😂
They challenged his views, thats what political journalists do.
Maybe that's why he understands people.
There we go Farage objected to the EU because of it’s impacts on the CITY. On his rich baker friends.
i wonder how much bread they made
Great leader
All the smug middle class journalists are still in therapy over Brexit.
Beer is delicious and is should always be enjoyed in moderation.
I hate demagogues, but Farage isn't one. He's the opposite of one. He's campaigned consistently for one cause for 30 years, debated everybody and knows his topic inside out. For some critics, simply being popular is enough to make someone a 'populist'.
What you see is what you get.....we didn't vote for May and we didn't get May
Your are not laughing now, are you?
???m
It is interesting what is actually saying Nigel Farage. He is pleading for a proportional system of political representation, a mechanism that distributes votes more evenly among more elected parties. As he acknowledges, the current majority system which favours two parties on power. By that Farage is actually European, because this feature is essentially a continental, not an Anglo-Saxon trademark, political tradition, culture. Farage is pro-European in this sense. By that, he is a representative of the anti-establishment too, an opposite of Labour, Tories who favour the dominance of two major parties in the British society and by that legitimize the centuries-long consensus of majoritarian status quo.
Thanks for everything Nigel. We will never be able to repay your bravery.
How Prophetic..........4 years later..............a new political party.
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
Steven Hopkins: Johnson was not indicting patriotism in general but simply false patriotism. There is a great deal of difference between jingoism and the love of ones' country and its way of life. Nigel Farage espouses the latter. Don't bother to respond to this: I never read responses.
I'll take patriotism over treachery or appeasement, every day. I suggest u emigrate.
Sounds like Dr. North has gone south. He's like a Democrat in America who will say anything to diminish Trump.
Haters are gonna Hate, huh, Channel 4?
Why am I not suprised he started his politics in a boozer
"Oswald Mosley" so any politician who isn't happy about the establishment can be compared to fascists?
It's funny how people that are willing to stand by, while the UK dissolves away, criticize Farage for having a 'nihilist' message.
He stuck to his word. He resigned.
"Nigel Farage is not UKIP"
Let's just stop with stories like this, eh?
Farage for PM.
Let the Liberal tears flow
Sorry, just CANNOT TRUST ANYTHING C4 says, does or ‘reports’.
A decent, straightforward guy who likes a bit of beer... Whats to say about that
😅😅😅
A change is going to come.
Demagogue is not good
Just go to 3 and a half minutes in. Asked what he would produce better than the current government set up and he was stumped. He is just the archetypal populist leader. Superb orator, finding a target to direct peoples anger against and harnessing that energy to build a simplistic movement that does absolutely nothing to address the reasons for the anger. The EU is not the cause of his followers discontent. Farage probably knows this so now, so the updated reason for anger is betrayal.
Nigel Farage for Prime Minister
Hard Brexit NOW !
RIP e.u.
"Not that I'm saying he's a fascist" .... well, if your not saying that then why say it? The truth is if you use the word (fascist) a tiny ping goes off in peoples minds. IT'S SOFT PROPAGANA AND YOU KNOW IT.
Get my vote and everyone I no to
The greatest PM we never had. Legend.
No that would be William Pulteney.
No that would be jo swinson
@@shaun7799 Jo Swinson isn’t a statesman nor has good policies.
@@ipswichrookie7553 I disagree, I’m a lefty
Down to earth bloke would have a pint with him any day vote brexit party
Grow up you child
THIS HAS CHANGED , WE ARE AT THE VERY END OF THIS WORLD HISTORY. THE NOSTALGIA OF THE OLD DAYS ARE OVER WITH. THE WORLD IS PRESSING TOGETHER MORE AND MORE TO BECOME JUST LIKE A VERY SMALL VILLAGE , WHERE EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED TO ONE ANTHER .--- THOSE WHO WANT TO CHANGE THE PRESS ON TOGETHER WILL UNDER GO THROUGH A LOT PAIN.
@Russian Troll so Im told It is ok to disagree with what i said yet, what i said is the truth . And the truth remain unchanged. --- it is always painful to go back where we where without broken some eggs. WHO EVER PUSH THE UK OUT OF THE EU, WILL ALSO CREATED AN INDEPENDENT STATE OF SCOTLAND.
This hasn't aged well...
What a total chap.
"He'll find out if that journey is over"....
Vote Brext Party.
Dean lol no I would but I’m not fascist
You don't know what fascist is my friend. You haven't the slightest clue. If the Brexit Party was fascist, it wouldn't have gay, black, left-wing, muslim, jewish, asian, and european nationals as elected MEP's. You need to buy a dictionary, learn history, brush up on your politics, and then come back with a mature point.
I would love to have a beer with Mr Forage any time
Joseph Technicolour song: Go to go to go to go go go
You're gonna make it big some day !!!!!
Channel 4 you're so bias !
Nige for PM
The propaganda and demonizing Farage by this piece is a major reason the people have had enough. Real change is coming.
My opinion don't count remember I have mental health issues hmm interesting
But not one ounce of help from the country I was born in, interesting eh
If I catch that corona virus I'm going to personally go and congratulate him on his brexit win.
What a god - ... this man is s giant in the history or England, our beautiful people snd history, our sense of decency and dignity and our ability to kick the slimy smug sanctimonious elites that controls us... The truth is WE despise our leaders and celebrities and TV figures - and we LOVE him purely for giving you a damn good kick in the nuts (not that you spineless people are true men anyway)... Tossers! Love Nigel ... We are never going to forget the beautiful thing he has done. Wonderful times to be English. Another thing Ch4 would know little about
You have got a very craggy old fellow trying to put Nigel down there he is pretty jealous I think. You overdid the drinking shots a bit as well. Nigel is a good man and his wife has actually said Nigel does not have a nasty bone in his body.
Farage what a legend.
No guts from others in parliament to back him,it just goes to show what there made of, and where were going,,,,,,,,bye brexit if they get there own way.
he gets all his great ideas from the dregs tray at the pub...
I'm a time traveller. ...and the lefty BBC .want be happy with what comes next 😂😂😂😂😉😉😉😂😂😂
I don't ever plan to go into politics but then again neither did Nigel Farage....so just in case it does come to pass that by some extraordinary reason I am on the campaign trail and someone/anyone hits me, I will lay them out, flat on their back...(1:26...how can someone be assaulted when surrounded by police and nobody does a damned thing about it). I'm 19st, though not over weight, still fit and in my 50's....everytime I see these bastards hitting Farage it makes my blood boil as he is a genuinely nice chap (and if anyone needs proof, check Nigel Farage and Rachael Johnson First Date) and just because someone disagrees with you doesn't give anyone the the right to throw milkshakes, throw eggs or assault someone....man or woman should get a good kicking if they decide to assault anyone!
Maybe this time people will wake up and see what ukip voters already knew. Vote for the top party in May 2019 be smart and if this is the Brexit Party then X
it is. I just hope the other parties loose after all if you get £80,000 a year you need to do what the people tell you to do.
1:05 :)
Change coat with black collar. Oh yeah you have. Thanks
Farage Nihilistic? not sure that man knows what that means..
