Nigel Farage makes jibe at heckler who interrupted speech – ‘Oh sorry darling!’
Nigel Farage has been mocked a heckler for “not having a job” after being interrupted during a press conference in Wales.
The Reform UK leader lashed out after a young woman spoke out during Reform’s Welsh manifesto launch, ahead of Senedd elections in May.
Responding, he said: “Oh sorry darling are you having a rough morning? Did you get out on the wrong side of bed? It’s alright, you always get the odd screamer at these events. Go back to work.” As Reform UK members laughed and cheered, he added: “I did say go back to work, but of course she hasn’t got a job has she”.

The clash came as Mr Farage told Welsh members of this party that Britain finds itself “humiliated”, with its reputation “frankly going down the drain” after failing to join US and Israeli attacks on Iran.
He said: “If there was one big justifiable reason why we should have supported the Americans and supported the Israelis on day one, if this war stops Iran from getting a nuclear bomb, it will have been worth it. What did our prime minister do? He said to the Americans ‘you cannot use military bases in the United Kingdom and you can’t use Diego Garcia’.
“Then he says ‘we will put fighter jets in the sky in a defensive capacity’. And now we learn that Ed Miliband led the sort of left-wing revolt in Cabinet and we find ourselves humiliated. What was for centuries the greatest naval nation on Earth is now unable, for up to a fortnight, to send a Type 45 to Cyprus to defend British sovereign territory.”
