It is men that are clearly the more perceived danger.”Rigby asked him again: “Will you detain the women and children? Will you send them back?”The Reform boss said: “Yes. Women that arrive, women that arrive by boat will be deported.”Asked if that meant to Afghanistan, Farage replied: “Yes if necessary.”He added: “I am more concerned about the rights of British people than I am about those who come here illegally.”BREAKING: Nigel Farage has confirmed he wants to deport women asylum seekers back to the Taliban in Afghanistan if he becomes prime minister.https://t.co/qMwKTS0rsy📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube pic.twitter.com/wbOWT6LsWi— Sky News (@SkyNews) September 6, 2025In the same interview, Farage also U-turned on a pledge he made on quickly ending Channel crossings by asylum seekers in his speech to the Reform conference just 24 hours ago.He told party activists: “We will stop the boats within two weeks of winning the government.”After initially denying that he had even said it, Farage told Beth Rigby: “Within two weeks *of passing the legislation* we will stop the boats.”Even with a Commons majority, it would take months for any such legislation to get through both houses of parliament.Watch the exchange below: BREAKING: Nigel Farage said he would stop small boats two weeks after legislation if he became Prime Minister https://t.co/qMwKTS0rsy📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube pic.twitter.com/CFqeyBvth2— Sky News (@SkyNews) September 6, 2025Related...Farage Branded 'Putin-Loving Trump Wannabe' By US Politician In Brutal SlapdownReform HQ Is Re-Branded 'Trump Tower' After Farage's White House Love-In'What's Changed?': Farage's Past Views On Dorries Leave Reform Chief Floundering
