Whatever you think of him, Nigel Farage has been one of Britain’s most influential politicians. His campaign to take the UK out of the EU went from a fringe viewpoint to government policy, but how did he do it? Political journalist Michael Crick joins Dorian Lynskey to discuss his latest book One Party After Another, which takes a deep dive into the life of one of Britain’s most controversial political characters.
- “Farage is the most important politician of this century.”
- “I wouldn’t write off the idea of this net-zero referendum happening.”
- “You can understand why Farage admires Vladimir Putin, he uses many of the same methods.”
- “The Conservatives were terrified of Farage getting into the House of Commons.”
- “Farage’s GB News contract has meant fewer appearances on other broadcast outlets.”
- “Farage is addicted to public attention, he would rarely turn down an interview.”
