Caroline Lucas did and she was hardly ever on. He led the largest UK political party in the European parliament which is why he deserved to be on Question Time regularly. It is irrelevant he never got elected to the Westminster parliament. His main objective when standing for a seat in the Westminster parliament was to attract publicity for his campaign for the UK to have a referendum to leave the EU which he successfully achieved.

It’s nice to see that the European Parliament counts. When it suits you, of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remind me of that number… Now the UK has left the EU UKIP do not deserve regular representation on QT. However when the UK were members of the EU it was correct that UKIP being the largest British political in the European party had regular representation. Your logic is flawed because representatives of the Scottish Parliament, Welsh Assembly and Northern Ireland Assembly deserve representation on QT.

A small point of interest but he wears a different neck tie for each appearance. 26 minutes ago, Mister Gee said: What do you mean by that? It was in reply to a question about present immigration, I pointed out that Brexit only involved immigration numbers from the EU. 22 minutes ago, Axe said: He led the largest UK political party in the European parliament which is why he deserved to be on Question Time regularly.

Mr. Farage was a man with a mission that he believed in and did something to achieve his aims which he believed were best for our country instead of just moaning and saying we can't do anything about such and such because of EU regulations.
