dailymail.co.uk

Protests broke out during a Reform UK event in Doncaster today. The party's leader, Nigel Farage, faced interruptions from several protesters as he introduced the mayoral candidate for the area. Farage began speaking, but was quickly disrupted by a heckler. He responded humorously, calling out to the crowd, "Oh dear, we've got a screamer!" This drew applause from some attendees. He challenged the protester to compete in elections, saying, "Come and fight us at the ballot box!" As Farage attempted to continue his speech, another protester interrupted him again. He made a light-hearted comment about the protester's appearance before trying to finish a story about a historical World War II pilot. However, more protesters continued to disrupt him. Security eventually escorted some protesters out. Farage reacted to one protester's call for a "Free Palestine," saying, "There we are, free Palestine!" Despite the chaos, he continued his remarks, criticizing the protesters, whom he called "hard left" and "Antifa." Overall, while Farage faced numerous interruptions, he tried to maintain control of the situation and finish his speech amidst the disruptions.
