Campaigner for Nigel Farage says 'migrants should be shot' in undercover footage

A Reform UK canvasser on Nigel Farage's campaign has been filmed saying people who arrive by small boats should be 'shot' and using racist language about Rishi Sunak.

And the footage also shows him encouraging a paramedic to deny oxygen to patients if they are “any of that f****** lot”. He described Islam as a "cult". George Jones, who has been running events for Mr Farage's campaign, told the undercover investigator that Clacton was chosen because it is "proper England". He said: "Not like in London when you’re a foreigner in your own country, and if you say ‘hello’ to someone they look like they're about to f****** knife you in the face."

“The appalling sentiments expressed by some in these exchanges bear no relation to my own views, those of the vast majority of our supporters or Reform UK policy. Some of the language used was reprehensible.
