Nigel Farage admits he's skipping the Commons as he's on HOLIDAY

Nigel Farage tonight revealed he's skipping the House of Commons this week as he's abroad on holiday.

The Reform UK leader - who is reported to be in France - was forced to admit he is away from Westminster after facing growing questions over his absence.

Sir Keir Starmer had noted how the MP for Clacton was missing from the Commons chamber this afternoon as he gave an update on his Brexit 'reset'.

Mr Farage has been fiercely critical of the PM's newly-signed agreement with the EU, including Sir Keir's extension of access to UK fishing waters for European fleets.

But the Reform leader was not physically present in Parliament in order to challenge Sir Keir over the terms of his deal with Brussels.
