‘Knives are out’: Nigel Farage being ‘attacked relentlessly’ by the media and political class

Spiked Online’s Brendan O’Neill says UK Reform leader Nigel Farage is getting a lot of momentum but he’s also being “attacked relentlessly” by the mainstream media and political class.
“The knives are out because these people loath popularism,” he told Sky News Australia.
“They are still scared of the Brexit spirit that was unleashed in the referendum vote eight years ago.
“They hate all these political waves that are coming from ordinary people who are sick of the mainstream political class and so they are trying to kill off Farage’s movement before it really gathers a lot of steam.”
