The government chose not to give Nigel the security that he needed. They now have, as a result of Ann Widdecombe’s appalling murder, offered him a meeting.
I find it astonishing that just a short period after [Farage] was elected to parliament, the authorities, the government, chose to massively downgrade his security.
Those who need them, under a Reform government, will continue to receive them but those people who are shirking, who are taking advantage, they will be reassessed and they will be helped back into the workplace.
