Nigel Farage has hit back at Boris Johnson after the former prime minister accused the Reform UK leader of a “morally repugnant” repetition of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s justification for the invasion of Ukraine.

The Reform UK leader addressed crowds in Maidstone, Kent, while on the campaign trail, saying that he would “never, ever defend” Mr Putin and that he had been “more far-sighted” in predicting a war in Ukraine.

Mr Farage, who has been criticised for saying the West “provoked” the war in Ukraine, told the crowd: “I was alone, I was the only person in 2014 who said there will be a war in Ukraine. I can’t take those words away and nor would I want to.”

The Reform UK leader went on to unveil a blown up poster of the i newspaper’s front page from May 10 2016 with the headline “Boris blames EU for war in Ukraine”.

Try as they may, it’s the opposition that ends up with egg on their faces.

Johnson was given a great majority. Not because of him but Nigel stood aside. Johnson did not deliver Brexit. He is not a credible politician and should be ignored

Moral clarity has gone out of fashion. It's like a breath of fresh air to hear it again. I'm surprised the Evening Standard even reported this as they hate the truth.

He was right tho would be no war with Russia if we didn’t get involved today before they signed the treaty, but Boris went over told him we would supply weapons and help him and the wall started within a week. Nigel was right to sat them things.

Boris's " SLAMA UKRAVINA" catching up with him. I guess Ukraine will " thank him" for great life they have now.
