Farage repeatedly refuses to call Sarah Pochin’s remarks racist, saying they were ‘ugly, clumsy’ and should be taken in context of ‘DEI madness’
Keir Starmer has also said that the Reform UK MP Sarah Pochin was being “racist” when she said “it drives me mad when I see adverts full of black people, full of Asian people”.
In an interview with the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg yesterday, Chris Philp, the shadow home secretary, repeatedly refused to describe Pochin’s comments as racist – although he did do so in an interview later in the day.
Asked if Pochin was being racist in what she said, Starmer told broadcasters:
Yes, she was.
