Politics mishal husain nigel farage
Nigel Farage’s outrageous response to Mishal Husain tells you all you need to know about the man and his party – 17 A++ responses
You probably already have a pretty good idea of who and what Nigel Farage is, but in the unlikely even you were in any doubt, this exchange will surely cement it beyond any doubt.
It’s the Reform UK leader being interviewed by the hugely respected former BBC presenter Mishal Husain and it’s not the 1970s might be doing a disservice to the 1970s – it just feels like it.

And these people surely said it best.

I applaud her professionalism when having to deal with Farage’s combination of arrogance, condescension and sexism. Read his body language, too… https://t.co/uZbc923sGX

I’m not a woman who minds being called love in a well meant context at all but when it’s done to demean & belittle as happens here, you can fuck right off. This is how men who come up against women of superior intellect behave. If Starmer did this, we’d never hear the end of it. https://t.co/jEzC07dvXp

Using arcane diminutive misogynistic condescension against a far superior female intellect just emphasises what a vile little man he is

I would have snapped back “I’m not your “love”, who do you think you are talking to?” immediately.
Who on EARTH does he think he is talking to?
Rancid old white men demeaning women like this gets my goat! https://t.co/cL3MKfYDxA— CrémantCommunarde ️ (@0Calamity) October 18, 2025

Mishal Husain is one of the standout current affairs broadcasters of our time.
Even if she weren’t, “listen love, you’re trying ever so hard” is a deeply disrespectful way to talk to any woman – or anyone. https://t.co/9mTJEN6NsC

His cult fans will absolutely love that. Making it acceptable to speak like Bernard Manning is his chief attraction for them. https://t.co/AA2fYO67Zr

Funny the right wingers all find it necessary to call women ‘love’ or ‘dear’. It’s a deliberate case of misogyny. Every single time. They hate women. And they hate equality. https://t.co/xWCWXXkRBD

@MishalHusain showing remarkable restraint in the face of this sexist condescension.
Farage isn’t fit to be an MP, much less PM. https://t.co/hZwo3k2r8k
