In a lively Commons session, Prime Minister Keir Starmer didn’t miss his chance to publicly roast Nigel Farage by highlighting the fact that he wasn’t even there. Starmer called out the Reform UK figurehead, who had loudly branded the new UK-EU deal a “betrayal of Brexit”, only to be nowhere in sight when the Prime Minister delivered his statement on the agreement.
The PM didn’t hold back, accusing Farage and his party of simply not caring, using the no-show as ammunition in a broader takedown of opposition voices. He also trained his fire on Tory leader Kemi Badenoch and the Lib Dems’ Ed Davey, both of whom criticised the agreement but offered little in the way of real alternatives, reported the Mirror.
