Farage claims canvasser's racist comments a 'set-up'
Nigel Farage has claimed the racist comments made by a canvasser in an undercover film by Channel 4 were a "set-up".
The leader of Reform UK went on to claim that the canvasser who made the racist comments was "acting from the moment he came into the office".
A spokesperson for Channel 4 News said:
"We strongly stand by our rigorous and duly impartial journalism which speaks for itself.
"We did not pay the Reform UK canvasser or anyone else in this report. Mr Parker was not known to Channel 4 News and was filmed covertly via the undercover operation.”
