Aug 2021. Farage talks to Dan Wooton

Nigel Farage claims French President Emmanuel Macron is looking to give "payback for Brexit" over the migrant crossing crisis as he calls for the UK Government to "tow" the boats back to Calais. The Godfather of Brexit, Nigel Farage, appeared on Dan Wootton’s GB News show to talk about the ongoing influx of Channel crossing migrants. Mr Farage, 57, accused Emmanuel Macron of not doing enough to stop migrants after the decision taken by the British electorate in 2016 when voters opted to leave the European Union. He claimed: “There’s a bit of payback for Brexit going on here, mark my words. “They’re rather enjoying our difficulty.” Nigel Farage then claimed the French President will not show up to the negotiating table unless Priti Patel takes a more hardline stance. He told GB News’ Dan Wootton: “The only way you can stop this is you have to say that nobody that comes via this route will be allowed to stay or claim refugee status - even if they’re genuine.”
