WATCH: Nigel Farage ERUPTS at Andy Burnham DEMANDING election and SLAMMING migration stance

Nigel Farage, Leader of Reform UK, thank you for joining us on GB News tonight. You're calling for a general election now, is that because you're worried about a Burnham bounce? Well if there's a Burnham bounce, he should call a general election now, because this is probably as good as it'll ever get for him. So no, look, he has said explicitly more than one time he wants to make the biggest change in politics in 40 years. That is not the 2024 Labour manifesto. This man has no mandate whatsoever. I mean it's even dubious that he should be Prime Minister, and I say that because I think the public are sick of this game of musical chairs. Internal parties making their own decisions, the public not involved anywhere. Well it's bad enough on the same government platform. If this is the most radical thing we've seen in 40 years, there must be an election. Are you worried about him? He won, of course, his by-election in Makefield in a seat where Reform swept the board in the May locals with Reform UK candidates, heavily voted Brexit in 2016, and now they've got a guy who can beat Reform in your backyard. Vote Burnham, get Starmer out. Which is what you said in May. I said vote Reform and get Starmer out. That's why he won as convincingly as he did. I mean fine, good for him. But does that change the overall picture? Well I'm not sure it does. And clearly, looking at the cabinet, he's going for the north of England. He realises that under Starmer, the north of England was lost to Reform in a very dramatic way. And that's going to be the great pitch battle between our two parties. And that's a problem for you, isn't it? I mean he's offering policies which are aiming the so-called Makefield test, whatever that is, policies that land with those constituencies in the north of England. Re-industrialisation? Really? Are you telling me, Mr Burnham, with the highest energy prices in the world, and you committed to net zero, that we're going to have re-industrialisation? Because I can promise you it isn't going to happen. He's taking money off the net zero budget today and spending it on cutting the cost of travelling round by bus. Oh please. That's good news. One minute, one minute. Bus fares are three quid. The Tories put them to two quid. Labour put them three quid. And now it's back to two quid. You must support that though, surely, for working people. It's Tweedledum and Tweedledee. It's the Uniparty playing a crazy game. At the end of the day, these are mere gestures. They are very small on the Richter scale of what is worrying people. And you know, you talk about today, dinghies have crossed the English Channel. I haven't heard Mr Burnham talk once, either in the Makefield campaign or now, about what he's going to do to stop dangerous young men entering our country. And I suspect the answer is nothing. Well he talked about HMO Britain in Ashton Town Football Club the morning after his by-election victory. By that he means, you know, House of Multiple Occupation Britain. That's a big concern. You're seeing it on the doorstep wherever you go in the country. He's trying to use our language. Well what solution is he offering? That's your worry. You've got a challenge here. You've got a PM who is literally talking your in some areas. Yes, but under him the HMOs will go up, not down. Because he's clearing out the hotels. That's why. Well fine, but arguably HMOs are worse, because they're in a street near you. You know, they're literally being put in the middle of residential areas. And that's not to even start on crime. There's not a week goes by we don't hear of a very serious court case of somebody who's entered illegally, who's committed murder, rape, you name it. We'll come to law and order in a second. You mentioned boats there. The trend though is down, isn't it? They're down by about a third. So surely you should welcome that Nigel Farage. Whether two terrorists come in, or one terrorist come in, I would suggest you the situation is still... But it's getting better. The measures brought forward by Keir Starmer appear to be working on the trend of numbers. They're seizing today, aren't they? It was revealed on GB News, seizing containers full of boats that haven't been used yet. It makes no difference. It makes no difference. If I'd said to you six years ago, only 25,000 young men in the first nine months of this year, you'd have said, what are you talking about? The whole thing is unimaginable.

I remember vividly when Satish Javid came back, I think from an overseas holiday, and there was a crisis over a few hundred coming across, and now it is far greater. Tens of thousands. Shubhana Mood is staying where she is. You must welcome that. She's the one person you seem to talk positively about in government. She has said some great things when she first took the job, but everything's been watered down. Everything's been watered down because the backbenches of the Labour Party simply won't stick it. And the really big one for her was indefinite leave to remain. Now, she picked up on a big statement that Zia and I had made to say the Boris wave should not automatically get indefinite leave to remain. And for people at home, that means if you get it, not only can you stay, you get full benefits and the rights to family reunion. Now, she talked about kicking McCann down the road, and it being 10 years till they got it, not the five years that we're coming up to now. But I just don't think, whatever she feels in her heart on this, I don't think her parliamentary party will allow her to do it. But she's intent on doing it, on going to 10 years from five years, isn't she? Well, so we say we're here for when we last spoke to her. Well, we'll see what happens. You've also called for VAT to be scrapped from energy bills. The government's doing that, 45 pounds. No, it's not. No, it's not. I mean, hey, they are doing it. Why are you saying no? No, no, no. 86% of households are heated by oil or gas. And they're not affected. So come on, look at the numbers. It's the heating bills, more than anything, that really, particularly worry the elderly. And those are on very, very low incomes. But however, ironic that as European Union members, we weren't allowed to reduce anything below the 5%. So it's a Brexit benefit, but it's a very small one. How long Gandhi Burnham stay within the confines of the manifesto he didn't sign up to and wasn't voted on in 2024? I just don't know what he's going to do. But, you know, I repeat the point. The biggest change in politics in 40 years, this man has no mandate. There should be a general election. There needs to be a general election. I'm astonished that neither the Lib Dems nor the Conservative Party can see that point and want one. I think the public increasingly do. And all right, you know, polling can move around rapidly, but a pretty clear majority of people think an election should happen. He's setting a 10-year plan out in the autumn. That suggests he meant that maybe two terms of five, that maybe signifies maybe an election later this year, or in May next year. Where are you on that? Do you know what's funny? Prime Minister's coming in and talking about 10-year plans, but he's the seventh in 10 years. Exactly right. Well, we'll wait and see how that plays out. Today's a big day. We're hearing about this from the family of PC Andrew Harper, deeply concerned about the early release in September. That will be a major issue for this government. Two of the people involved in his killing should be released early. The driver, we think, won't be released early. What would you do if you were Prime Minister? Build more prisons. It's all well and good criticising the Labour Party for early releases. The Conservatives released 160,000 prisoners early. Our population has risen by about 11-12 million, mostly through migration, over the last two decades. And our prison places have increased by a few hundred. Sorry, we either have to clear the prisons out of the 10,000 foreign nationals that are there by deporting them. That's one quick option that we could exercise. You would do in power? Absolutely. But then we may have other British prisoners overseas being sent back to our prison. I'll take that trade every day of the week. Every day of the week, I will take that trade. We'll take back British people that have committed crimes in Sudan or wherever it is. You wouldn't do the release scheme planned by Labour for this? I just think the release scheme is an insult. Just finally about you. You seem angry and cross. Will you last the time until next election? You're not going to drop out and draw stumps on your time at the reforms? If I was going to do that, I wouldn't be out there fighting the way that I am and travelling around. No, I've been annoyed, but I have every right to be annoyed. Difficult time. We haven't spoken to you since Anne Widdicombe was killed. It is absolutely appalling what we're hearing in the courts now. It's limited what we can say about the court case and so forth. How are you about that? She's a friend of yours. She's a reformed UK justice and immigration spokeswoman. More than that. I mean, she was actually on television and radio that very day defending me. She'd done two interviews defending me and was about to do a third. So in the middle of defending me, this happens to her. I'm utterly appalled, obviously. 21 hammer blows to the head. I mean, the whole thing is just unbelievable. The man has been charged, has appeared on murder charges. But I know that counterterrorism are digging much deeper into what motives might have been. And I'm not going to say anything publicly at this time, but there is a lot more to come out. Anne Widdicombe, yeah, we miss her so much. Amazing woman. And the reaction is incredible. I know. The public reaction is incredible. People coming up on the street say to me, I didn't agree with her, but she was her own person and she spoke her own mind. And she was a tough lady. That's how politics should be in this country. That's where it ought to be. That's where it needs to be. Nigel Farage, thank you for joining us tonight on GB News. Thank you. There we go.
