Summary
The article criticizes Nigel Farage for pulling out of a BBC interview days before local elections, suggesting he avoids scrutiny and tough questions. The author speculates Farage had "five million reasons" (likely referencing financial or political motivations) to avoid the interview, portraying him as someone who dislikes being held accountable despite his public persona as a straight-talking man of the people.
Key quotes
· 3 pulledFarage, man of the people, straight talker and a huge fan of asking the 'hard questions' of others, has pulled out of an interview on BBC.
My view is that whilst Farage loves nothing more than the sound of his own voice, he hates being held to account and hates tough questions even more.
On this occasion he had five million reasons not to be interviewed on TV.
