Farage backs out of BBC interview amid Hitler row
The Independent
|June 12, 2024
Nigel Farage pulled out of a high-profile BBC interview as his Reform UK party faces a row over whether the UK should have appeased Hitler.
The former Ukip leader was due to take part in a Panorama special with Nick Robinson, set to have been broadcast last night.
But it was pulled from the schedule and postponed, despite Mr Farage continuing to campaign in Barnsley and Nottinghamshire.
It comes less than 24 hours after it emerged one of his candidates claimed the country would have been “far better” off if it had “taken Hitler up on his offer of neutrality” instead of fighting the Nazis.
