'A Bulls**t Artist': Kemi Badenoch In Fresh Foul-Mouthed Blast At Nigel Farage

Kemi Badenoch and Nigel FarageKemi Badenoch has launched a fresh foul-mouthed blast at Nigel Farage as the pair’s feud exploded once again.The Tory leader described the Reform UK boss as a “bullshit artist” and even claimed that his friendship with Donald Trump is fake.In an interview with the Sunday Times, Badenoch said she “used to really respect” Farage, but that her view of him changed after details of a private conversation between them ended up in the Telegraph.“I thought, this is bullshit,” she said. “And that was the moment that it changed for me, that this is a bullshit artist, so that is how I treat him.”Farage is reportedly heading to America this week to give evidence to a US Congress inquiry into free speech in Britain.According to the Telegraph, he will tell allies of Donald Trump about Lucy Connolly, the Tory councillor’s wife who was released from prison last week after serving more than a year for a tweet she posted during the Southport riots calling for asylum seekers’ hotels to be burned down.But Badenoch insisted that Farage’s well-publicised friendship with the US president is fake.She said: “I’ve been told by many people that it’s all puff.”The Tory leader’s comments come as her party continues to trail well behin Reform UK in the opinion polls.Her attack also echoed similar comments she made about Farage at the Local Government Association’s annual conference last month.According to The Spectator, she said: “Nigel Farage is a bullshitter, a bullshitter. The difference between liars and bullshit is that bullshitters don’t care whether what they’re saying is true or false. They just say whatever. We are not liars and we don’t do bullshit. We tell the truth. That is what my leadership is about.”Related...Truss And Badenoch Reignite A Fight No One Asked For, While Ignoring The Reform-Sized ElephantKemi Badenoch Brands Nigel Farage 'A Bulls*****r' In Foul-Mouthed RantTories Have Allegedly Lost 8,000 Party Members Since Kemi Badenoch Took Over
