The Tory press/media turning on Farage

Is it not a bit rich that all the Tory papers and commentators were happy to have Nigel Farage fighting their corner on Brexit and other issues like immigration. They knew full well what he was like then. Now he poses a big threat to the Tories and he's suddenly getting the Corbyn treatment

Our fearless free press.

Don't you think it more likely that the media were/are reporting Farage's defence of Putin's motivations for invading Ukraine? Why wouldn't they do that?

Farage has now tempered his remarks, and is promoting 'sensible negotiations', but (a) this is hardly a novel thing for anyone to say; and (b) the media are reporting on this less problematic line too.

They are running scared. What a hoot!😄

Farage made no secret of his views previously. He's praised Putin before.

It's just ridiculous that he gets so much airtime anyway. I switch off the radio tv everytime I hear his voice.

Same here. He seems to be everywhere.
