In a move nobody saw coming (or asked for), Nigel Farage has taken a break from ranting about Brexit and immigration to target an unlikely new enemy: semi-skimmed milk. Yes, the former UKIP leader has declared war on the milk aisle, accusing it of being a breeding ground for left-wing ideology.
This utterly bizarre declaration came via a TikTok post, which was later shared on Twitter/X by ReformDaily. And naturally, the internet had a field day.
While his argument remains as thin as the milk he’s railing against, the clip quickly churned up reactions, with the general consensus being, “Is this guy for real?”
Nigel, who?
Nigel Farage is a British politician, broadcaster, and former leader of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), best known for his pivotal role in the Brexit campaign. Born in 1964, Farage started his career in finance before moving into politics. A charismatic yet divisive figure, he became UKIP’s leader in 2006, championing the party’s Eurosceptic and anti-immigration platform.
Farage’s relentless campaigning for the UK to leave the European Union positioned him as a central figure in the 2016 Brexit referendum, which resulted in a 52% vote to leave. Post-Brexit, he founded the Brexit Party (now Reform UK) to pressure politicians to deliver on the referendum’s result. Known for his fiery rhetoric, pub-loving persona, and frequent appearances on media platforms, Farage has remained a controversial public figure.
