Of fucking course he has... What make you so fucking entitled to come on here preching your lefty woke bullshit? Oh wait a minute we all know why don't we.... Freedom of speech doesn't entitle anyone to a platform. I have freedom of speech, does that entitle me to a weekly column in the Telegraph? No because you are not as interesting as Farage , have a much lower profile as Farage , have done nothing of note compared with Farage and wouldn’t sell as many newspapers |

Because that would give voters more information/clarification on the policies and viewpoints of the parties they will be able to vote for. No it wouldn’t. Farage has a great deal of knowledge of political issues and the EU. He can give voters an insight into issues that others fail to challenge . Unless you are saying that we do not allow political pundits on the media. |

No, I'm saying that Farrage shouldn't be given airtime at the expense of political parties actually standing in this election. |

I would describe it as unbiased and fair. And free of extremist politics. Are you assuming that only 'lefties' were against Brexit? He definitely insinuated, as I witnessed on TV, that the asylum influx problem was down to the EU. He also whinged Freedom of Movement migration into the UK was THE problem at a time when migration from outside of the EU was greater than from within. Because YOU think it then it must be unbiased and fair ? Ok.😁 No lefties weren’t the only ex remainers but Farage bugs lefties because of his stance on uncontrolled immigration . The Freedom of movement was one of the reasons certainly the main reason why so many itinerant young low pay workers from Eastern Europe migrated to the UK. Don't be silly, it is the case that all politics and ideas of fairness have their left to right wing extremes. There is a balance between the extremes. I'm sure you are aware of that. Because of his lies and distortions on immigration LOL If his concern about immigration was genuine he would at least have mentioned that most immigration came from outside of the EU. One doesn't need to be a Leftie who voted remain to be bugged by the deceitful Farage. I have never seen an account of the numbers of Business people, Professional people, Entrepreneurs, Teachers, Skilled, Social workers, and Semi Skilled workers along with the unskilled workers from the EU, have you? I did read one article that claimed that most of the lower paid from the EU were better educated than their UK counterpart. And made a more reliable workforce than many of their UK counterparts. |

It addresses both your question and addresses why Farage has a platform . So it does really . |

You’re ‘ silly’ not me . He addressed the hoards of migrants coming in from the EU . He addressed the concerns of the lower paid workers who did not benefit from EU membership due to that very reason . You are too old for it to have affected you and too indoctrinated in the leftie “ they are doing what the UK workers won’t do “ propaganda. |

Any other political commentator that had pledged to help the campaign of a particular political party, yes absolutely. |

So do you believe that they should give the airtime to the candidates instead?

I never said that the BBC shouldn't have political commentary. I don't think someone who has pledged to help the campaign of a particular political party but isn't standing in the election should get airtime at the expense of candidates who are standing. |
