Rishi Sunak blasts Reform campaigner’s racial slur and insists Nigel Farage has questions to answer

Rishi Sunak said a racial slur against him by a Reform UK canvasser “hurts and it makes me angry” and that party leader Nigel Farage “has some questions to answer”.

Campaigners for Mr Farage’s party were recorded making racist comments, including about the Prime Minister who is of Indian descent.

Mr Sunak on Friday said: “My two daughters have to see and hear Reform people who campaign for Nigel Farage calling me an effing p***. It hurts and it makes me angry, and I think he has some questions to answer.

“And I don’t repeat those words lightly. I do so deliberately, because this is too important not to call out clearly for what it is.”

Speaking on a campaign visit to a school in Teesside, he continued: “And as Prime Minister, but more importantly as a father of two young girls, it’s my duty to call out this corrosive and divisive behaviour.”

The footage, made by an undercover Channel 4 reporter, showed Reform campaigner Andrew Parker using the racist term about Mr Sunak and suggesting migrants should be used as “target practice”.

I’m sorry you and your daughters had to hear that, Richi. I do hope you are not too traumatised by it.

It does, indeed, need calling out but I guess it’s all a matter of proportion. On a different note, did you know that women and children are being blown to bits over in Gaza with British munitions? Didn’t think you did.

The bloke is an actor hes a life long Tory, he does however need arresting, especially when police go to a 12 year-old kid, and as for the P word Mr Sunak it is totally unacceptable unless your Prince Harry if my memory serves me well

This is a dodgy story. The alleged racist was an actor speaking in an unnatural 'rough' voice (i.e. not his own). This on the same days as Farage on Question Time? Something not right here.

He allegedly is an actor, Rishi Sunak - Get YOUR facts right

[CapoKabar]

He was an actor paid previously by Ch 4 to do various roles. Shyte is spilling from him everytime he speaks just like Sunak

What a pity Rishi didn't improve the country when he had the opportunity.

It's called KARMA, RIshi...Thought your religion would have given you a heads up by now??🤔 ..But you know what they say ..."Experience is the BEST teacher!!"...Guess that saying does ring through now!!

That actor Andrew Parker looked straight into the camera. He clearly knew about the undercover camera

[Open_your_mind]

Rishi you reap what you sow. You have encouraged divisiveness. Especially during your last Islamaphobic speech. It has come back to bite you

[paulday]

Funny this is more a problem to sunak than criminal activity in his own party you should get his priorities right

[FontaineDerby]

Parker said "I offered to help the Reform Party on their canvassing as I believe that they are the only party that offer the UK voter a practical solution to the illegal immigration problem that we have in the UK."

Mr Parker was filmed saying he knows Mr Farage, having met him in a restaurant in London once and spoken with him on the phone “a couple of times”.

The reason Rishi became PM isn't due to the collapse of Johnson's demagoguery which harnessed the votes of that same group, ironically?

[Themanyfacesofego]

What kind of parent would expose his children to this?

[rtayya]

[yvonnerout]
