Nigel Farage hits out at ‘detached from reality’ Gary Neville after football pundit’s flag video

Nigel Farage has hit out football pundit Gary Neville, claiming he is “detached from reality” following a video the former Manchester United star posted, claiming the UK is divided.

Neville revealed he had removed a Union Jack flag from one of his development sites in Manchester because it was being “used in a negative fashion”.

In his video, posted on 3 October, the day after the Manchester synagogue terror attack, Neville hit out at what he described as “angry, middle-aged white men” dividing the UK as he urged the country to reunite.

The Reform UK leader has now posted his own video in response to Neville.
