Nigel Farage debuted his new GB News show on Freedom Day yesterday, leaving many to wonder what could possibly go wrong?
The former UKIP and Brexit Party leader was given a prime-time show as the channel tries to revive its faltering ratings, which slumped to zero at some points last week.
But his show got off to a rocky start as it was beset by mistakes and “mind-numblingly boring” commentary, according to one critic.
Others were left questioning how “this man change the world” as he failed to inspire.
A report from the anti-lockdown protests at Westminster seemed to sum the show up.
Tom Harwood had been sent down to see what was going on, but struggled to report back as foul-mouthed demonstrators continually interrupted him.
The protestor began branding Tom as “scum” and “w****r” than appeared to also shout ‘nazi,’ off-screen.
He attempted to carry on with the news segment, telling Farage: “At the moment, the police are trying to clear the streets, trying to clear the roads.
“But there have been some people who’ve been trying to obstruct them,” Tom said, but he soon became drowned out.
Farage then took action and decided to end his report there.
Cutting him off, Nigel said: “Okay, Tom, I’m sorry, I don’t want to cut you off, I really don’t.”
Tom Harwood later tweeted: “Great advert for those who want their protests reported.”
