Nigel Farage accused the Labour Party of trying to blame the anti-mass migration riots on him out of fear of losing votes to his Reform UK party in left-behind areas of the country.
Mr Farage said that it was “despicable” for legacy media and political establishment in Westminster to cast blame on him for the riots that swept the nation in the wake of a mass stabbing at a children’s dance party allegedly by a Rwandan-heritage teen in Southport last week.

The Brexit leader told Sky News on Tuesday the reason there have been attempts to blame him for the violent uprising was that the Labour Party is “terrified that many of their own voters will vote for me”.
While the press and politicians have branded the riots as entirely “far-right”, the violence has almost exclusively occurred in traditional Labour Party-supporting cities and towns, including many in the North and Midlands, which have born much of the brunt of mass migration while suffering from de-industrialisation.
The so-called “Red Wall”, once thought of as unassailably Labour, has increasingly become up for grabs electorally with the region in large part backing Brexit as well as Boris Johnson’s Tories in 2019, at the urging of Mr Farage. In last month’s election, Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party won back most Red Wall seats, however, Farage’s Reform leapfrogged the Conservatives and came in second in 98 of these seats behind Labour.
