The Guardian, on UK Politics, 12 November 2026
We do not republish articles from The Guardian. Our findings are below, each quoting the words it is about. Read the full article on the outlet's own site.
Read the original article on theguardian.com (opens in a new tab)The Guardian reports that Nigel Farage appeared on Russell Brand's podcast in July 2024, after the sexual assault allegations against Brand were public and after Farage had commented on them on GB News. It backs each claim with dated facts, Farage's own earlier words and his spokesperson's response. Nothing in it misleads the reader.
“Farage was aware of the serious sexual assault allegations against Brand at the time because he had commented on them on GB News the previous year”
The Guardian does not leave the claim that Farage knew about the allegations to inference. It gives the basis and then quotes his GB News remarks in S14 to S16, which the Mirror and HuffPost also report.
“Asked about his appearance with Brand, a spokesperson for Farage said: “Nigel regrets his appearance on the show.”
The Guardian gives Farage's side its own space. It also reports the Reform sources' account that the appearance was unplanned, attributed to them rather than stated as fact.
“Tate denies the allegations.”
The Guardian keeps the status of the charges against Tate clear. It states that he denies them, so the reader is not led to treat allegations as findings of guilt.
