A Nazi bully at school - @Nigel_Farage denies this despite 34 witnesses to the contrary - he is a bully MP.
He told people he didn't go to the budget because he did not want an altercation with an MP.
It turns out that this is @LibDems' @CarolineVoaden.
Pathetic.
I am not shocked by his shameful behaviour because of the testimony of so many witnesses for my book, The Real Nigel Farage.
Nasty piece of work.
Exclusive:
Nigel Farage's "physical altercation" during the State Opening of Parliament was with the Lib Dem MP Caroline Voaden - and has caused an major row between Reform and the Lib Dems.
Lib Dem sources say Voaden was left "shocked and shaken" after he "shoved" her to secure a place in the procession of MPs to the King's Speech.
Video from the Commons Chamber that day shows Farage and Voaden making their way down from their benches together.
Voaden reported the incident to the Serjeant at Arms and says Farage was asked to apologise - but hasn't.
A Reform spokesman denies any wrongdoing by Farage, saying "it was the Lib Dem MPs being aggressive towards Nigel". Lib Dems say that is "utter nonsense"
Farage said yesterday that the "physical altercation" was the reason he didn't put up a fight to be in the Chamber for the Budget after his prayer card to save a space was removed.
He said he thought that after the row with Voaden, it was "better to avoid conflict".
But in a further twist, a Commons spokesman says Farage's card was only removed because it didn't have a date stamp, which are required to reserve a spot.

Tomorrow, when you see the front pages of the right-wing press telling you how dreadful the budget was, remember their track record.
Also remember that right-wingers won’t ever be happy with any budget that doesn’t push down on those at the bottom to benefit those at the top.

.@JohnHealey_MP said his “choices” in #Budget2026 mean he’s “kept the Labour manifesto promise not to raise tax on working people”.
But ahead of the Budget our Government Tracker was rating this promise as ‘not kept’. Here’s why 👇

I challenge @_GeorgeFinch the leader of Warwickshire County Council @reformparty_uk to play the defence lawyer in the mock trial of @Nigel_Farage.
In a democracy, writing books, talking to sixth formers and mocking politicians is OK.
But political actors must be open about what they stand for and where their money comes from.
@_GeorgeFinch Do you accept the challenge?

Did small boat crossings go “up and up” while Robert Jenrick was immigration minister?
And what about this government’s record?
We’ve fact checked two claims the Prime Minister made earlier this month about small boat crossings.

After a ship sank in the Strait of Hormuz, rumours that it was carrying valuable goods like iPhones began circulating.
One video appears to show people collecting floating iPhone boxes. But it’s not real—it was made with AI.

This is somewhere between deeply irresponsible and a lie.
HMRC will be able to "seize money" from people who owe tax, aren't disputing it, but just fail to pay. That's people who cause the rest of us to pay more tax.

President Zelensky has consistently shown himself to be willing to make sacrifices for peace - despite that fact that Ukraine is the victim of Russia's war of aggression. Putin has never done so, and there's no reason to believe he will start now.
