Nigel Farage admits depicting Angela Rayner as cow in abbatoir ‘not very funny’

Nigel Farage has said Reform activists depicting female cabinet ministers as cows to be slaughtered is “probably not very funny”.

The Reform UK leader responded to a report by The Independent about an image that emerged from a Reform local election stunt depicting Angela Rayner, Rachel Reeves and Bridget Phillipson as cows heading to the abattoir.

He said: “All sorts of appalling things get said and done by people fighting in elections at a local and national level.

“We get it done to us, and if one or two of our people do it to them, maybe, if it’s funny, it probably isn’t very funny.”
