He said that branding his party’s plans as racist will “incite and encourage the radical left” and threaten the safety of his campaigners in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder.
Furious Farage said he will now teach the PM “a lesson” next May at local elections and votes in Wales and Scotland insisting it was the “last throw of the dice” for a PM in “deep trouble.
Responding to Sir Keir’s conference speech, he said: “The government are incapable of beating us with the arguments.”
On a day of high drama:
- Sir Keir tore into Farage accusing him of “not liking or believing in Britain”
- The PM branded Reform the “enemy” and said “we will never surrender to them”
- Farage hit back, claiming Starmer was “unfit to be PM”
- The Reform leader added: “He used to be a decent man”
- And both party leaders accused each other of “inciting racial hatred & violence”
He added that the Prime Minister had “descended into the gutter” in a blistering response to the PM’s conference speech.
Farage said: “It’s been an extraordinary conference. I’ve been watching party conferences for half a century.
“Never before have I seen one name so dominate a conference, and the remarkable thing is it’s somebody that isn’t even a member of the Labour Party.”
He added: “What I’ve learnt this week is that the Government are incapable on beating us on our arguments and as a result the Prime Minister has decided to descend into the gutter, and all of his Cabinet with him.
“Let us be clear. Reform want illegal migrants deported from our country. As I speak a further 400 have crossed the English Channel today. Reform want the benefits system to be for UK citizens, for British citizens only, not for foreign-born nationals.
“Reform want foreign criminals removed from our country asap. Labour says these policies are ‘racist’ and ‘immoral’ and by implication Reform supporters, Reform voters, Reform sympathises are racists too.
“Yes, if you think we should control our borders, you are, by the definition of the Prime Minister and his Cabinet, all racists.”
His intervention came as Sir Keir said that the UK stands at a “fork in the road” urging the country to unite against Mr Farage and Reform UK.
He told the party conference that there is a “defining choice” for its future.
Repeating remarks from last week he said that there was a “fight for the soul of our country”.
He said: “We can all see our country faces a choice, a defining choice. Britain stands at a fork in the road.
“We can choose decency or we can choose division.”
